Description praman 2000-12-15 02:34:06 UTC 
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.

Re-classifying product to VCSCVS; this is not a netbeans.org CVS issue.
Comment 3 Martin Entlicher 2000-12-18 10:23:59 UTC 
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.
Comment 4 Martin Entlicher 2001-01-10 12:34:59 UTC 
Bug marked as invalid, since cygwin should not be used on Win2000 and the user
didn't provide enough information.
Comment 5 dmladek 2001-02-04 15:14:59 UTC 
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
Comment 6 Quality Engineering 2003-07-02 17:17:44 UTC 
Resolved for 3.4.x or earlier, no new info since then -> closing.
