Hi,

I am trying to use the Cvs::Simple module of CPAN for perl interface but i am not able to do so here. I did not see a function where i need to put the server details and password. i am trying something like this but it does not work.
Please advise as how i can achieve this.

Code:
#!/usr/bin/perl
use Cvs::Simple;
use strict;
use warnings;

print "This program is using CVS module of CPAN...\n";
my($cvs) = Cvs::Simple->new('D:/CVS/temp',
        cvsroot => ':pserver:user@server:/cvs/repository',
        password => 'secret'
) or die "$!";
my $tag = "tagname";
my $module = "modulename";
print " Preparing to checkout $tag with $module\n";
$cvs->co($tag , $module);
print "Checkout is done. Please check the location of repository\n";

When i execute this program i got the error
Code:
Odd number of elements in hash assignment at C:/Perl/site/lib/Cvs/Simple.pm line 68.

How can we pass the login credentails and cvs server details to the new method.
Any idea or help will be a good help to me.

Thanks

CHSH(1)                                                            User Commands                                                           CHSH(1)

NAME
chsh - change login shell SYNOPSIS
chsh [options] [LOGIN] DESCRIPTION
The chsh command changes the user login shell. This determines the name of the user's initial login command. A normal user may only change the login shell for her own account; the superuser may change the login shell for any account. OPTIONS
The options which apply to the chsh command are: -h, --help Display help message and exit. -R, --root CHROOT_DIR Apply changes in the CHROOT_DIR directory and use the configuration files from the CHROOT_DIR directory. -s, --shell SHELL The name of the user's new login shell. Setting this field to blank causes the system to select the default login shell. If the -s option is not selected, chsh operates in an interactive fashion, prompting the user with the current login shell. Enter the new value to change the shell, or leave the line blank to use the current one. The current shell is displayed between a pair of [ ] marks. NOTE
The only restriction placed on the login shell is that the command name must be listed in /etc/shells, unless the invoker is the superuser, and then any value may be added. An account with a restricted login shell may not change her login shell. For this reason, placing /bin/rsh in /etc/shells is discouraged since accidentally changing to a restricted shell would prevent the user from ever changing her login shell back to its original value. FILES
/etc/passwd User account information. /etc/shells List of valid login shells. /etc/login.defs Shadow password suite configuration. SEE ALSO
chfn(1), login.defs(5), passwd(5). shadow-utils 4.5 01/25/2018 CHSH(1)
