username in CVSROOT going unheeded in winCVS

[EXT-Corcoran, David]

I'm using the .rhost method for CVS with winCVS (W2K).

Problem:

The username seems to be unheeded, i.e. when I examine the log portion of
the modified file it indicates that ipmds* (see below) was the author of the
change rather than davec%. My CVSROOT within the winCVS tool is shown as

        :ext:address@hidden:/home/ipmds/cvsroot

I've also tried remove the :ext: and there is no difference.

Under unix (HP/UX) it seems to work correctly i.e. the authorship tracks the
username specifed in the CVSROOT environment variable.


*ipmds: is the username under which the CVS server is running i.e. the login
shell

%davec: is my user id under W2K


Does any have any idea how I can rectify this?

Finally, America will begin to see the staggering wealth our own city,
county, state, and federal governments hold in hidden and secret accounts
and assets. If these assests - that the AMERICAN PEOPLE own - can be
liberated from government agencies, we can see a virtual end to property and
income tax. Sound impossible? Then you haven't heard Walter Burien exposing
