SubVersion Configuration.

SubVersion Configuration:

Machine Config in use:

RHEL4 Update 6 Full install.

apr-9.21 and subversion-1.4.5 rpms to be installed.

cvs2svn-1.5.1-2.el4.noarch.rpm to be installed if there is a need for cvs2svn shift.

Apache Configuration:

<Location /svn>

        DAV svn

        SVNParentPath /export/home/svn

        SVNListParentPath on

        AuthzSVNAccessFile /export/home/authz

        AuthType Basic

        Require valid-user

</Location>

Path Based Authentication (authz File):

[groups]

groupname=user1,user2,user3.................

[Repos:path]

user=perm

@groupname=perm

eg:

[jaguarcvs:/]

abagaria=r

[rtlc:/]

abagaria=

[systems:/]

abagaria=rw

Cvs -> Svn

Importing an Existing CVS Repository to SVN.

cvs2svn -s <path to the new svn repository space> <path to the old $CVSROOT>

eg: cvs2svn -s /export/home/svn/jaguarcvs /export/home/jaguarcvs/CVS

chown -R apache:apache <path to the new svn repository space>

Note:

There should be no binaries checked in along with the source code in the repository.

If there is a repository checked in anyways Please use "cvs admin -kb $FILE" on the binary to correct the format.

Using Subversion:

svn --no-auth-cache <command> - so that authentication is not cached for further use.

svn co - Checkout

svn ci - checkin

svn import directory <path of the svn where directory needs to be added> - To Push in unversioned directory in versioning system.

svn list - listing of the files from the current path.

svn update - freshen up the existing versions.

svn add - adds a file/folder to the repository (pending commit).

svn delete - deletes a file/folder from the repository (pending commit).

svn copy source destination - copyies file/folder from one location to another (immediate).

svn move source destination - moves above.

svn mkdir - same as mkdir a;svn add a

svn status - status of all the files/folders in a prticular folder (relative to there repos copy ).

svn diff - check difference b/w working copy and repos copy.

svn lock - to lock the repos copy of the working file.

svn unlock - to unlock file.

Subversion Administration:

Creation of a Repository:

    cd [parent path for all repositories]

    svnadmin create [new repository name]

    chown -R apache:apache [new repository name]

    cd /tmp

    mkdir tempstruct

    cd tempstruct

    mkdir branches tags trunk vendors

    svn import -m "Initial Repository Structure" http://innvm-svn/svn/[new repository name]

Lock Administrator:

    svnadmin lslocks /export/home/svn/repos:    To view locks.

    svnadmin rmlocks /export/home/svn/repos /filepath : To remove locks from a particular folder/file

Branching:

    svn copy http://svn.example.com/repos/calc/trunk \
http://svn.example.com/repos/calc/branches/my-calc-branch \
-m "Creating a private branch of /calc/trunk."

    

Marimba Query Builder

I dont know how many of you have faced this problem.

Although Marimba is a very great Inventory mgt. tool; using it to gather out information is very very difficult.

A basic marimba query is some what similar to a SQL query, the first select is the first part of the query and the every other refine query is a nested in select query with it.

Printer Configuration Solaris

Edit /etc/printers.conf file to add all the printers whose queue will be managed by the server.

Eg:

/etc/printers.conf ::
<Printer-name>:\
:bsdaddr=<server-name>,<Printer-Destination>,Solaris:

To start the service use /etc/init.d/lp start

This starts the lpsched process. (For solaris 10 use svcadm enable print/server)

NIS

DB folder:

/var/yp generally.
Makefile to decide such settings.

/usr/ccs/bin/make <map-name>
/usr/ccs/bin/yppush -v <map-name> #to push maps on desired yp servers.
