Hi friends, this is my first thread,so i hope don`t disturb something here .

Maybe you can help me, this is the story:

I Follow this tutorial from the web:

CVS TUTORIAL (http://dfajardod.blogspot.com/2011/01/instalacion-de-un-servidor-cvs-en.html)

its seems that the login go fine, but when a try to make a checkout with this line :



cvs -d : pserver:username@localhost:/cvsroot checkout

its sends the next error:

Fatal error, aborting.
cvsd: no such system user

Even if a try to connect from Eclipse to the repo its sends the same error.

hope you can help me friends.

peace.

NOTE: i'm configuring this part "service cvspserver" with the right parameter from my server.

I have the same problem.
I see the same instructions all over the net. I see people reporting this same error all over the net. For the last eight years. Obviously people use CVS with Ubuntu. What's the trick? Come on people!
