Hi everyone,
I hope someone can help me with this problem..
I'm setting up cvs pserver (a customer requested it so no I cannot use
subversion ;-))
on a suse 8.2 server with xinetd and it works, so thats the good news,
the bad news: I want it to work with tcpd so I can make the setup more
secure but when I try that I cannot login to the cvs server, and I get
this in my /var/log/messages
Jun 23 10:28:07 servername tcpd[30218]: connect from 1.2.3.4 (1.2.3.4)
Jun 23 10:28:38 servername last message repeated 31711 times
This is my working /etc/xinetd.d/cvs without tcpd:
service cvspserver
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = cvs
group = cvs
server = /usr/bin/cvs
server_args = -f --allow-root=/usr/local/cvsroot pserver
}
This is the "problem" /etc/xinetd.d/cvs
{
socket_type = stream
protocol = tcp
wait = no
user = cvs
group = cvs
server = /usr/sbin/tcpd
server_args = /usr/bin/cvs -f
--allow-root=/usr/local/cvsroot pserver
}
regards Chantal
