CVS for QNX 6

Anyone know where I can get this application? I tried to go to the old
qnxstart site but it was down.

TIA,

Jim

I suppose that it belongs to the development package.

Alain.

I found the ‘cvs’ command in QNX but I have since decided I’ll just use
Samba and WinCVS.

Thanks,

Jim

That doesn’t change anything, you need cvs running on your qrtp machine as
server side becauseWinCVS is only the client side.
Maybe you know what to do, but in case, to get it working, you need to do the
following:

in /etc/services, add:
pserver 2401/tcp

in /etc/inetd.conf, add:
pserver stream tcp nowait root /usr/bin/cvs cvs -f
–allow-root=/anypath/CVSRoot --allow-root=/anypath/anyotherCVSRoot pserver


And for sure, start inetd or slay -shup inetd if it’s still running.

In WinCVS,
as CVSROOT, enter:
:pserver:your.logname@your_qrtp_machine_name:/anypath/CVSRoot

as Authentification, enter:
“passwd file” on the cvs server

As ‘Use version’, choose:
cvs1.10 (standard).


Hope this will help.

regards,
Alain.

Thanks but I was looking for a graphical CVS front end for QNX. Our CVS
server is on Linux. I’ve got samba and wincvs working and just check out my
projects to my qnx machine using samba.

Thanks for the help though, it is very much appreciated.

pserver


And for sure, start inetd or slay -shup inetd if it’s still running.

In WinCVS,
as CVSROOT, enter:

I know this is an old post but I’m hoping that someone can help me
finish of the documentation.

My goal is to get CVS working in server mode on my QNX RTP host. I’d
like to be able to access it from the IDE.

I edited /etc/services & /etc/inetd.conf as indicated above.
I restarted inetd. Now the IDE recognizes that there is something
there that it can’t connect to. (As opposed to before when there was
nothing there and I got a different error.)

BTW, I manually created the /anypath/CVSRoot directory. Is this OK?
What permissions should that directory have?

It’s the In WinCVS down part that I don’t know how to translate to QNX. Can someone help set up the authentication?

Firstly, CVS is a third party application, which is why there are no CVS docs in
the IDE docs. Setting up the IDE to use a working CVS install is trivial
(certainly it is much easier than setting up WinCVS).

Again, the IDE assumes that there is a correctly configured CVS server.

What you need to do is google for CVS. There is a lot of information about
setting up CVS on the web (any tutorial on setting it up under Linux should
translate directly to setting it up under QNX). Once your CVS server is up an
operational (use WinCVS as the client, if you are comfortable with that), then
try and connect the IDE to it. I think you will be pleasantly surprised at how
easily the IDE CVS client sets-up compared with (say) WinCVS.

It’s the In WinCVS down part that I don’t know how to translate to QNX. Can someone help set up the authentication?

Open the CVS perspective, create a new repository; tell it where your CVS server
is, and what your user id and password is, and your done.

Your problems seem to be related to getting the CVS server up and correctly
configured. This is probably not the best place to be seeking assistance on that.

For those who care, I figured this out. It wasn’t all that difficult.
I wrote down some easy to follow instructions in a new thread. Look
for “Setting up CVS” in this newsgroup.
