Hi,

Has anyone tried to port and set up a CVS server on OpenWrt?
I’m using OpenWrt WhiteRussian RC4 on an Asus WL 500g Deluxe with an USB Storage device.

Thanks,

Hi,

I tried the attachment and I was able to perform an update locally on the router, however I could not use remotelly. The TortoiseCVS client which I use on the client machine fails (ssh and ext auth methods) and says that the "server" command is invalid.
I am not familliar with configuring CVS on linux...

Thanks,
ZsJoska

It's me again -

Here are the logs on the client side when I am trying to check-out remotelly:

Any idea?

i also need to run a cvs server on a wrt54gl with SD/MMC MOD. Could anybody help me, please??
ThanX

I would be interested in cvs server for Openwrt WhiteRussian RC5 too.
I had no success trying to compile it myself. Can someone do it for me please ?

//edit
Got it to compile now. It is no ipkg file but it works.
Don't know how to attach a file here, so you can get it -> HERE

I tried all available binaries and I couldn't make them work to access them remotely. Local access worked.
You should tru and compile cvsd http://ch.tudelft.nl/~arthur/cvsd/
