RE: simple newbie init question


Thanks, I found the doc page for .bashrc and .profile. And I got
postgres starting fine. But I need to start pserver for use with cvs.
Can I do this with the cygwin bash shell or some other way? I read the
apache/cygwin page on starting httpd. Is their something similar for the
cvs pserver?

In other words, where does the line 'cvspserver stream tcp nowait root
/usr/bin/cvs cvs --allow-root=/usr/local/cvsroot pserver' go?
