Trouble With CVS

[Mojomonkey]

Hi all,

I got CVS for my java.net project set up and all the source in there. I had no problem logging in as myself and uploading (as well as checking out). However, I have been unable to log in to download as an anonymous user. I've tried the command:

cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@cvs.dev.java.net:/cvs login

and get the following error

(Logging in to anoncvs@cvs.dev.java.net)
Fatal error, aborting.
anoncvs: no such user
cvs login: authorization failed: server cvs.dev.java.net rejected access to /cvs for user anoncvs


This is the user name that the source code page help says to use. Any ideas?

try with guest user
:pserver:guest@cvs.dev.java.net:/cvs

yep, that was it. They need to update the site to reflect that the anonymous is: guest and not anoncvs.

Thanks Starlord
