Configuring cvsd
----------------
The whole idea of cvsd is to serve repositories. Specify a colon ':' separated list of
repositories to serve. The location of these repositories is relative to the specified
chroot jail (/var/lib/cvsd) and should start with a '/'.
The repositories here should be initialized by hand with something like 'cvs -d
/var/lib/cvsd/myrepos init' after which passwords can be set with 'cvsd-passwd
/var/lib/cvsd/myrepos anonymous'. See the file /usr/share/doc/cvsd/README.gz for details on
creating repositories.
..
..
if your cvs binary changes (new version) you should rerun cvsd-buildroot
invoke-rc.d: could not determine current runlevel
invoke-rc.d: policy-rc.d denied execution of start.
Processing triggers for systemd (245.4-4ubuntu3.15) ...
Repositories to serve: cvs-server
Step 3: Initialise the repo
cvs -d /var/lib/cvsd/cvs-server init
Step 4: Create User
cvsd-passwd /var/lib/cvsd/cvs-server user-name
Step 5: Login to CVS
# cvs -d :pserver:user-name@localhost:/var/lib/cvs/cvs-server login
