[Glmom-devel] Re: CVS problem

Hi, iceberg,
  Finally I think I know the reason why you can not
commit changes.
  The local copy of the CVS tree contains information
about identity of the person who check them out. When
you first check out the CVS depository of GLMoM, you
may use pserver authentication method, then you made
some modifications and would like to commit, however,
WinCVS still thinks you are using pserver authentication
method, therefore even you have configured WinCVS to
use SSH authentication, it would not use it.
  To solve this problem, make a new directory, then
check out GLMoM to the new directory. Then you can
try make some modifications to a file, and commit
it. This time you should suceed. Have a try!
  Due to the same reason, if you have two developer
accounts, you should check out the CVS tree to two
different directories, each time using different
accounts. When comitting, WinCVS uses the identity
information stored somewhere in the local copy of
the CVS tree, not the identity information in the
preference dialogbox.
  I found this from the following doc:
http://sfdocs.sourceforge.net/sfdocs/display_topic.php?topicid=46
  I check out the CVS tree to a new directory using
iceberg8 account. Then I add a line to GLMoMView.cpp
and commit it using iceberg8 account. Bingo! this
time suceed! Have a look at our CVS depostory where
iceberg8 commit changes:
