Hi,
I have one question and one plea for help:
Question:
How long does it generally take to confirm a subscription to Fedora-trans and
Fedora-trans-DE lists? I subscribed to both two or three days ago but didn't get an
answer yet.
Problem:
I fee a bit sheepish about this but since I have some spare time and would like to start
contributing I ask nevertheless:
I can't get CVS check out to work. I checked every resource I could lay my hands on
but to no avail. I'm sure the solution is right in front of my nose but I'm stuck.
Here's what I did so far:
I created a Fedora project account and during this uploaded my id_dsa.pub file. "All
done" was the answer of the project server. Sounded good to me.
Then I set my CVSROOT and CVS_RSH env vars to the following:
CVSROOT=:ext:<my fedora project login>@cvs.fedora.redhat.com:/cvs/docs
CVS_RSH to "ssh"
"cvs co docs" gave "Permission denied
(publickey,keyboard-interactive).". Well ... Google coughed up myriads of hits but
nothing apparently helpful.
Some investigations later I ended up trying to be smart and added myself to the group
"cvsdocs" in my project account with the result that I now have an entry in my
account stating "cvsdocs [...] unapproved". I'm not to sure if this is
correct anyway and there's still no luck with "cvs co docs".
I have not the slightest idea what I'm doing wrong or missing. I'm not that slow
off the mark normally but this is certainly a "Wood and tree" problem. Could
someone please have pity on me and cut some trees?!
Thanks for your patience.
Tom
