    I've installed cvsmonitor 0.6.3 and relevant perl modules from CPAN in order to meet requirements. My Linux box is Redhat 7.2 for x86. Installation seems good.

    But an error appears when I try to checkout module(vmain.vconf is the name), and I can't find useful information from the log(what does 'end of file from server' mean?). /tmp/CVSMonitor_MetaData_0_6/vmain.vconf was created after checkout, but was empty. by the way, Checking out from the shell works fine. Also CVS server works fine using TortoiseCVS from my labtop.
    Any help would be great pleasure to me. thanks in advance.

    following is checkout error log -

    Wed Jun 23 14:35:37 2004 Command - checkout vmain.vconf
    Wed Jun 23 14:35:37 2004 Checking out module vmain.vconf
    cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
    Wed Jun 23 14:35:37 2004 Error during checkout:
    Wed Jun 23 14:35:37 2004 An error occured during the 'cvs checkout' command

      I found that IP address of cvs server is not listed in hosts.allow. It worked after explicitly appending server's IP address to the host.allow. Isn't it sufficient with 127.0.0.1 ?

      Strange. Did you add the Repository as 127.0.0.1, or by name? The name probably resolves to the public IP, and so CVS Monitor would try to connect to that.

      Curiously, the "repository exists" test connects to it with telnet. I'm surprised this passed, if you didn't have it in hosts.allow.
