NAME

       cvsd - chroot wrapper to run ‘cvs pserver’ more securely.

SYNOPSIS

       cvsd [options]

DESCRIPTION

       cvsd is a wrapper program for cvs in pserver mode. it will run ‘cvs pserver’ under a special uid/gid in a
       chroot jail.

       cvsd is run as a daemon and is controlled through  a  configuration  file  (see  cvsd.conf(5)  ).  It  is
       relatively  easy  to  configure  and  tools  are  provided  for  easily  setting  up  a  chroot jail (see
       cvsd-buildroot(8) ) and managing repositories (see cvsd-passwd(8) ).

       See the README for more information and details to setting up a chroot jail and repositories.

OPTIONS

       cvsd accepts the following options:

       -f, --config=FILE
              Use FILE as configfile (default is /etc/cvsd/cvsd.conf).

       -d, --debug
              Enable debugging mode.  cvsd will not put itself in the background  and  sends  verbose  debugging
              info  to  stderr.   Otherwise  cvsd  handles  connections  as usual.  This option is for debugging
              purposes only.

       --help Display short help and exit.

       -V, --version
              Output version information and exit.
