CVS/SSH Hanging

CVS/SSH Hanging

[David Hawkins]

Hi,

I am trying to setup my laptop to access a repository
on a machine running Solaris. I have everything working
ok under Linux (i.e., SSH works fine, and CVS via SSH
works fine). However, when checking out modules under
Cygwin the system hangs after finishing the checkout
of the last file in the module. Running with -t shows
the last operation as  unlink(CVS/Entries.Log).

I saw Jeff's email comment in the Cygwin that this bug
was gone in the latest release of Cygwin. However, I
downloaded and install Cygwin on 10-23-2001 and still
get this error (Win95 laptop). I have cc'ed this
email to Jeff's address (I apologise if this is
not desired).

I hope someone can help get me up and working under Win95, as
against my better judgement, I need to work under Win95 to
test the hardware I am working on (DSP emulator stuff which
runs under Win95).

Thanks for any help,

Dave Hawkins
Caltech.

I think you misunderstood the comment.  You'll need to download a
snapshot if you want to see if this problem is fixed for you.

Thanks Larry, Jeff, and David,

(I must have missed this comment in the FAQ, sorry)

I'll either wait for the next release, or download a
snapshot of the latest code if I have a chance.

Thanks for the prompt assistance.

Regards,

Hmmm "soon" looks similar enough to "fairly soon" for
my liking :)

Do you happen to know the cause of this problem?
I was looking through pages on the cvsgui.org site
and noticed that the guy who wrote "A minimalistic
guide to CVS with SSH" commented he was using Win2K 
and Cygwin. I'm pretty sure I had this hanging
issue under Win2K ... (I'm have been working out of
town for a few weeks, so haven't been able to recheck
this).

Again, thanks.

Dave
