In CVS, I selected the pserver option and entered the details about account and host and cvsroot. When I click OK, it brought upa login popup, and when I entered my password, it said that login failed. I am able to use CVS pserver from the same PC (via cygwin bash shell) to the CVS repository host. Has the pserver functionality been tested ? How can I see any log that describes the problem it encountered, or the complete cvs command it attempts to execute. Prabhu
*** Bug 8907 has been marked as a duplicate of this bug. ***
Re-classifying product to VCSCVS; this is not a netbeans.org CVS issue.
The pserver option was tested on Win2000. In the Login Dialog, there is a tooltip on the "Login failed" textfield. If you left the mouse on the field for some time, you should see the error message. Can you please provide the build number ? Did you turn on the Win95/98 support ? On Win200 it should be off, because the use of cygwin is not necessary and may cause problems.
Bug marked as invalid, since cygwin should not be used on Win2000 and the user didn't provide enough information.
I'd rather say that it works for me than invalid. I've tested it on linux rh70, WinNT4, Win98 without problem on dev builds and FFJ20
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
