I am working on setting up a git server so that people can clone, pull and push their code at git.mycompany.com/pub/git+project path. 
However, I am having challenges. For people who setup their git servers, please share your experneces with me and tell me what I did wrong.
I greatly appreciate it.

After I made configurations, I ran the command, git update-server-info at the public repository machine. But, I got the error.

git pull http://git.mycompany.com/pub/git/u-boot.git HEAD
fatal: http://git.mycompany.com/pub/git/u-boot.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?

The file /pub/git/u-boot.git/info/refs dose exist.

cat /pub/git/u-boot.git/info/refs
87ee4576c4c31b7046fe2bbbdf309eaba5c3f346        refs/heads/master

My question:

Is the contet of /pub/git/u-boot.git/hooks/post-update correct? Should I change "exec git-update-server-info" to "exec git update-server-info"?

cat /pub/git/u-boot.git/hooks/post-update
#!/bin/sh
#
# An example hook script to prepare a packed repository for use over
# dumb transports.
#
# To enable this hook, rename this file to "post-update".
exec git-update-server-info

I tried and changed "exec git-update-server-info" to "exec git update-server-info" in /pub/git/u-boot.git/hooks/post-update. But, I still got same error.
git pull http://git.mycompany.com/pub/git/u-boot.git HEAD
fatal: http://git.mycompany.com/pub/git/u-boot.git/info/refs not found: did you run git update-server-info on the server?

Which one is correct? "exec git-update-server-info" or "exec git update-server-info"? Eventhogh none of them working.

Below are my settings:

grep 9418 /etc/services
git             9418/tcp                        # Git Version Control System


grep git /etc/inetd.conf
git     stream  tcp     nowait  nobody  /usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-daemon git-daemon --inetd --export-all /pub/git


cat /etc/xinetd.d/git-daemon
# default: off
# description: The git server offers access to git repositories
service git
{
        disable = no
        type            = UNLISTED
        port            = 9418
        socket_type     = stream
        wait            = no
        user            = nobody
        server          = /usr/local/libexec/git-core/git-daemon
        server_args     = --inetd --export-all --base-path=/pub/git
        log_on_failure  += USERID
}


I am running git at Linux box:
uname -a
Linux svdclw004 2.6.9-67.ELsmp #1 SMP Wed Nov 7 13:56:44 EST 2007 x86_64 GNU/Linux

Are there anything wrong? Please let me know.
