User Guide - CVS Installation
- 11/12/2004 3:27 PM
The following tutorial provides guidance for setting up a CVS Pserver on your VE.
1. Install the Fedora Core 1 Development Tools into your VE. This can be accomplished by logging into your control panel and selecting the system tab. Once in the system tab, select Applications -> All Applications. On the Applications screen click on the Add Application and select Fedora Core 1 Development Tools then click Next and this will begin the installation on your VE. 2. Once the Fedora Core 1 Development Tools installation is complete and listed as installed under your application list, then open a secure shell session to your VE and execute the following commands:
mkdir /opt/cvsroot
cd /etc/xinetd.d
Using your favorite unix text editor open a file named cvspserver and place the following text in it (e.g. vim cvspserver)
############ CUT HERE ############
# default: on
# description: CVS Server
service cvspserver
{
port = 2401
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = root
passenv = PATH
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = -f --allow-root=/opt/cvsroot pserver
disable = no
}
############ END HERE ############
Once you have saved this file, then execute the following command from your secure shell session:
/sbin/service xinetd restart
3. After restarting, you will need to run the comand "cvs -d /opt/cvsroot init" to initialize the server. CVS setup is now complete and you can continue with initializing and setting up your modules.
