RE: [jcvs] CVS Command line option - "--allow-root"


I have just recently upgraded cvs from 1.9.  We have several repositories
and I've put these entries into the inetd.conf file for each one of them.
Below is an example.  I can't log in.  I get the following error message:
cvs [login aborted]: authorization failed: server creator rejected access

I've tried finding the answers in the FAQs and such for CVS but have been
unsuccessful.  Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jennifer
