ksh: cvs: not found ??

Hi,

I've set up putty/ plink to work with cvs on windows and connect via ssh to unix where my cvs repository is. I want to use wincvs to log in to my cvs repository.

However, I get an error when I run the following command (on windows):

cvs -d :ext:user@server:/path/to/repository status

it says:

cvs status: warning: unrecognized response 'ksh: cvs: not found' from cvs server

I've set the CVS_SERVER environment variable on my windows client to the correct cvs path on the server.

Any ideas? Anyone?

How do I get cvs to pick environment variables when connecting to a remote repository? I don't want to set everything on windows because that's not very practical with multiple users.

It's telling you that CVS is not in the PATH variable of the process you created remotely.

This is probably because your .profile is not executed when you login this way. All you execute is /etc/profile.

yes. I knew that but not how to solve the issue.

solution is to create an environment file in the .ssh directory.
