    I'm running w/ MDK v9.2 as webserver with cvsmonitor v0.6.3, and cvs  of cvs-1.11.6-3mdk.
    The CVS repository is on a RH v7.3 server with cvs-1.11.1p1-8.7

    I have cvsmonitor installed, I ran "perl -MCPAN -e 'install xxx::yyy'" to correct the perl dependencies. The install script completes and I can add a repository and module but when I try to checkout a module it fails.

    If I login as root and then "su - apache" I can go to the directory with the CVSMonitor Meta Data and manually checkout modules after logging in and setting CVSROOT.

    Here are the logs:

    Wed Apr 14 05:50:17 2004 Command - checkout CoreC.lpn_lib
    Wed Apr 14 05:50:17 2004 Checking out module CoreC.lpn_lib
    cvs checkout: authorization failed: server patron rejected access to /usr/source/cvsroot for user cvsmon
    Wed Apr 14 05:50:17 2004 Error during checkout:
    Wed Apr 14 05:50:17 2004 An error occured during the 'cvs checkout' command

    What do I need to check?

      hrm... double check the password. You have to explicitly list the password in the repository definition. You can't use a .cvspass file or some other form of implicit authentication.
