- 2. Installation.
-
- - Edit CONFIG.SYS to add X:\CVS\BIN to your PATH. Make sure you
- have the EMX 0.9c runtime (Fix 4) installed.
-
- The following two steps are only required for server and local
- installations. They are NOT required for client only installations.
-
- - Create a new directory that will serve as your repository.
-
- - Add the CVSROOT environment variable to your CONFIG.SYS:
-
- set CVSROOT=<your repository>
-
- Path components are separated by forward slashes.
-
- - If you don't want to use TEDIT to edit your commit messages
- and ChangeLogs, add "set CVSEDITOR=<your favorite editor>" to
- CONFIG.SYS. Be sure to include any options and arguments your
- editor might require. To use EPM, add "set CVSEDITOR=epm /m".
- If you are using emacsclient, add "set CVSEDITOR=emacsclient".
- Type C-x # to continue the commit.
-
- - Add the following environment variable to your CONFIG.SYS, if it
- doesn't already exist:
-
- set LOGNAME=<your login name>
-
- - Reboot.
-
- - To create book objects for the CVS documentation on your desktop
- run the install script in the BOOK directory (change to the BOOK
- directory first).
-
- - For server and local installations, initialize your repository:
-
- cvs init
-
- - If you want repository access control, commit messages emailed
- and/or ChangeLogs (semi-)automatically maintained, take a look
- at the SCRIPTS directory.
-
- - You are now ready to use CVS in client and local modes.
-
- - To setup a server or pserver, go to the 'Autostart' page in your
- TCP/IP configuration notebook and enable inetd.
-
- - Edit %ETC%\inetd.lst to add the line
-
- cmd tcp X:\CVS\BIN\RSHD
-
- for a server and/or the line
-
- cvspserver tcp cvs --allow-root=<your repository> pserver
-
- for a pserver. You also need to add the line
-
- cvspserver 2401/tcp
-
- to %ETC%\services.
-
- Note: You have re-do this step each time your TCP/IP configuration
- is updated. A backup of %ETC%\inetd.lst is saved to %ETC%\inetd.bk?.
-
- - If you are using RSHD, go to the second 'Security' page in your
- TCP/IP configuration notebook and add each host/user you want to
- serve.
-
- - If you are setting up a pserver, you have to setup a passwd file:
-
- md work
- cd work
- cvs co CVSROOT
- cd CVSROOT
- cvspw -add <login name> <password>
-
- Repeat the last line for each login name.
-
- Edit the file checkoutlist to add the line:
-
- passwd
-
- In file config uncomment the line "SystemAuth=no".
-
- - Finally add the file passwd to the repository and commit:
-
- cvs add passwd
- cvs commit -m "<your log message>"
-
- You can now remove work\CVSROOT.
-
- - Reboot. Your server should now be able to accept requests.
-
- 3. Contacting the author.
-

- to this EMX port, send email to "Andreas Huber" <ahuber@ping.at>.
