Bug 12785

Summary: anoncvs@anoncvs.freebsd.org:/cvs does not work
Product: Base System Reporter: timlee <timlee>
Component: miscAssignee: chuckr
Status: Closed FIXED    
Severity: Affects Only Me    
Priority: Normal    
Version: Unspecified

Description timlee 1999-07-24 00:50:01 UTC 
	Setting the CVSROOT environment variable to
	anoncvs@anoncvs.FreeBSD.org:/cvs and then using
	cvs checkout does not work with either rsh or ssh.

	The problem appears to be that anoncvs.FreeBSD.org
	is not actually allowing rsh or ssh connections.

Fix: 

Using "ssh -v anoncvs@anoncvs.FreeBSD.org" gives a bunch
	of possibly related messages including:

	minos.dsllogic.com: Remote: Server does not permit empty password login.
	[...]
	minos.dsllogic.com: Remote: Bad file modes for /ctm/FreeBSD/anoncvs

	before a password is asked for.
How-To-Repeat: 
	minos# echo $CVSROOT
	anoncvs@anoncvs.FreeBSD.org:/cvs
	minos# !cvs
	cvs checkout -rRELENG_3 src/sys
	select: protocol failure in circuit setup
	cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
	minos# setenv CVS_RSH /usr/local/bin/ssh
	minos# !cvs
	cvs checkout -rRELENG_3 src/sys
	anoncvs@anoncvs.freebsd.org's password: 
	Permission denied.
	cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
	minos#

Perhaps Timothy Lee <timlee@xpeed.com> could test this out, since has an
open PR on broken anoncvs.

Ciao,

Could you test this out again? Chuck Robey mailed one of the lists 
with an announcement which suggests that this may have been fixed. 
Waiting on your feedback...
