Re: [jcvs] 2401 port issue

[Philippe BOURGEON <pbourgeo@bnp.fr>]

Hi tim,

good news : JCVSII on NT works with a AIX cvs server.

To do that, I recompiled cvs with CVS_AUTH_PORT to 2402.

Thereafter, I changed defaults.properties (jcvsii.portNum.pserver.default=2402)
into my NT JCVSII install directory but nothing happened.
Finally, I succeeded putting the property (jcvsii.portNum.pserver.default=2402)
directly into the jcvsii.txt (home directory).

cheers
