The following describes how to install and configure CVSNT on the source code of RedHat.

First, you need to delete cvs from the current system.

Rpm-e cvs

1. Download the source code from the website and decompress it.

2

../Configure

Make

Make install

3

There are several programs available in the source code directory. Copy them to the corresponding directory:

Cp redhat/cvslockd/etc/init. d/cvslockd

Cp redhat/cvsnt-xinetd/etc/xinetd. d/cvsnt

Because the source code is installed under/usr/local/bin, You need to modify all/usr/bin/cvsnt files to/usr/local/bin/cvsnt,

Change/usr/bin/cvslockd to/usr/local/bin/cvslockd

Or use ln-s/usr/local/bin/cvsnt/usr/bin/cvsnt to create a soft link.

Cp redhat/cvsnt-pam/etc/pam. d/cvsnt

(Note that cvsnt-pam must be changed to cvsnt)

4.

Set auto-start

Chkconfig -- add cvslockd

Chkconfig cvslockd on

Ntsysv

Set xinetd and cvsnt to self-start

5.

Start cvslockd

/Etc/init. d/cvslockd start

6.

Mkdir/var/cvs/

Mkdir/var/cvs/iManage

Cvs-d: local:/var/cvs/iManage init

(Cvslockd needs to be started first)

Modify/etc/cvsnt/PServer and change Repository0Name =/var/cvs/iManage to/iManage. For more information, see PServer. example.

7.

Add a cvs group, add multiple users, and set the user to belong to the cvs group.

Groupadd cvs

Useradd cvs-g cvs

Useradd tomzhou-g cvs

Useradd readonly-g cvs

Useradd ipaddr-g cvs

Passwd & chsh cvs users

8.

Chown-R cvs. cvs/var/cvs

Chmod-R g + w/var/cvs

After restart, you can use users such as tomzhou, ipaddr, and readonly to log on to the system.

9.

If you are using a virtual user, you need to set the following:

Groupadd cvs

Useradd cvs-g cvs

Useradd cvsadmin-g cvs

Passwd cvsadmin

Chown-R cvs. cvs/var/cvs

Chmod-R g + w/var/cvs

Add cvsadmin to/var/cvs/iManage/CVSROOT/admin (this file does not exist by default)

(The user in the admin file is treated as the Repository administrator)

Export CVSROOT =: pserver: cvsadmin @ localhost:/iManage

Cvs login

Cvs co CVSROOT

Cvs passwd-r cvs-a vitualUserOne

Cvs passwd-r cvs-a VirualUserTwo

Cvs passwd-r cvs-a cvsadmin

Cd CVSROOT

Set UseSystemUser = no in config

Submit changes to CVS

Cvs ci

After that, you can only log on with a virtual user. You cannot log on with a system user. The virtual user uses the System user cvs to access the file system.

For other configurations, see the CVSNT document.
