I have been trying to get the changelog-maven-plugin to work with CVS for a
few hours now. I have searched for the topic and found a few good threads,
but I never really found a definite solution.

SCM Configuration PM.xml
First Variation:
<scm>
<connection>@cvsserver:2401:/a/cvs:MS</connection>
<developerConnection>@cvsserver:2401:/a/cvs:MS</developerConnection>
<url>http://repository</url>
</scm>
Second Variation
<scm>
<connection>scm:cvs:pserver:username:@cvsserver:2401:/a/cvs:MS</connection>
<developerConnection>scm:cvs:pserver:username:@cvsserver:2401:/a/cvs:MS</developerConnection>
<url>http://repository</url>
</scm>
Note that I removed the password yet left the : just like some thread
suggested. I also did a cvs login from the command line right before I tried
the above scm.
Third Variation
<scm>
<connection>scm:cvs:pserver:username:@cvsserver:/a/cvs:MS</connection>
<developerConnection>scm:cvs:pserver:username:@cvsserver:/a/cvs:MS</developerConnection>
<url>http://repository</url>
</scm>
Note that I removed the port number.
The SCM Template I am Trying to Follow
I will put this here for quick reference:
scm:cvs<delimiter>pserver<delimiter>[username[<delimiter>password]@]servername[<delimiter>port]<delimiter>path_to_repository<delimiter>module_name
Notes
1) I am not using the standard Maven directory structure. All I am supposed
to do with Maven is create a project site for an existing project using mvn
site:site.
2) The site is generated successfully (I love the site!), but clicking on
any of the changelog links displays this message:
No sources found to create a report.
3) I hope I was thorough enough, and thank you for your help in advance!

I posted this message a couple of days ago and I got no replies. Did I miss
any details that I needed to include? If you know of a better place to find
a solution, could you please redirect me to it?

Sam,
I am not sure if you have been able to fix this issue or not but, there are
some issues with the version of plugin you are using now. I had the same
issue and was asked to use a different version: 2.0-SNAPSHT

Anywayz here is the thread:
