cvs server rejecting password

by Daniel "opcode" Arnold · in Torque Game Engine · 06/16/2002 (1:53 pm) · 4 replies

I'm having trouble logging into the cvs server.

I'm using WinCVS in Win2000.

Here is the exact error message I get from the server:

cvs login: authorization failed: server cvs.garagegames.com rejected access to /cvs/torque/ for user Opcode

I tried putting my username in all lowercase as well. I know the password should be right or I wouldn't have been able to login to write this!

I followed all the instructions from the help docs.
Here is my CVSROOT string: Opcode@cvs.garagegames.com:/cvs/torque/

I've logged in many times before so I don't know what could be wrong, could someone look into this please.

Thanks

-Daniel

Whenever winCVS gives me troubles, I revert to the command line, and use this
cvs -z6 -d :pserver:user_name@cvs.garagegames.com:/cvs/torque login

Thanks Erik,

I feel like a dumbass. I was unaware they distributed the command line tool as well. This was the first time in about 6 months that I have had trouble.

I tried this as well and I am getting this:

(Logging in to MY_GG_LOGIN_NAME@cvs.garagegames.com)
cvs [login aborted]: connect to cvs.garagegames.com:2401 failed: Connection timed out

This is my first time loggin in and I saw that your password can not have spaces in it. I also made sure that I could log onto GG first.

I searched the forums and could not find anything like this.

This was because of my work's firewall. It works fine from home.
