Do you, in fact, have a CVS pserver set up? In my experience, the far more common way is to do CVS-over-ssh: CVS_RSH=ssh CVSROOT=cvs.example.com:/usr/local/cvsroot export CVS_RSH CVSROOT cvs checkout myproject This requires remote login ability on cvs.example.com, and that the repository in fact be rooted in /usr/local/cvsroot there; substitute appropriately in the above recipe. You could use 'cvs -d' instead of setting CVSROOT, but you do need to set CVS_RSH in the environment regardless. -- David Maze [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://people.debian.org/~dmaze/ "Theoretical politics is interesting.
