Here's how to do it manually (assuming your apache user is named www) : -- (as root) su - www cvs -d :pserver:username@cvs-server:cvsroot login (type in your CVS password) -- Now the "www" user is allowed to use your repository, since the password is stored in ~www/.cvspass (and by extension, any SandWeb user can too). This is why we don't really "support" this (pserver) method, it's too insecure without us having a more direct interface to Unix account. HTH, Rob |
