Folks,

can anybody point me to some current doc on how to setup a cvs server 
under cygwin?

The info I was able to find on the web dated back to the early 2000s 
suggesting:

1. add line to /etc/inetd.conf:

cvspserver stream tcp nowait root /bin/cvs cvs -f --allow-root=/cvs/root 
pserver

with /cvs/root being the cvs root dir.


2. add line to /etc/services:

cvspserver       2401/tcp                           #CVS server


3. run:

inetd --install-as-service
cygrunsrv -S inetd



an attempt to have a cvs client connect to the cvs server failed with a 
message in /var/inetd.log:

someone wants cvspserver
accept, ctrl 3
+ Closing from 13
7264 execl /bin/cvs
7264 reaped, status 0x100


thx. a bunch,
H.
