Every time I try to start, with the cvs import command, it tells me I don't hve sufficient access. I have made a directory /usr/chuckr/cvs for the files to live in, and my CVSROOT has /usr/chuckr/cvs. I wanted to experiment with the new nvi editor (messing around with it's new tcl/tk capabilities). The clean sources live in /usr/chuckr/nvi.1.65, so I cd'ed into /usr/chuckr/nvi.1.65 and I issued the command: cvs import -m "Imported nvi" nvi/nvi.1.65 start cvs import: Sorry, you don't have sufficient access to /usr/chuckr/cvs cvs [import aborted]: /usr/chuckr/cvs/CVSROOT: No such file or directory Journey2:/usr/chuckr/nvi.1.65:352 >ls -ld /usr/chuckr/cvs drwxr-xr-x 2 chuckr wheel 512 May 16 16:29 /usr/chuckr/cvs/ All the files involved are owned by me. I have root here, but I don't think it should be needed and I don't want to use it if I don't have to. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong? Do I need to create a file or directory named CVSROOT? ----------------------------+----------------------------------------------- Chuck Robey | Interests include any kind of voice or data chuckr@eng.umd.edu | communications topic, C programming, and Unix. 9120 Edmonston Ct #302 | Greenbelt, MD 20770 | I run Journey2 and n3lxx, both FreeBSD (301) 220-2114 | version 2.2 current -- and great FUN! ----------------------------+-----------------------------------------------
