Thanks, but this is not working - here is the output: usr/local/src is for downloads and the local CVSROOT is /usr/local/source.
I am not confident what this means, because I cannot see the function of having a local CVSROOT. However, it appears to mean that the module does not exist on the server. ?? So I tried checking it out into the ROOT, on the basis that the local root has to have some function, but I don;t understand it. Surely the root is where the developed files are - on the server. As I read the CVS anonymous login instructions, it seems to be necessary to create the local root, check out the files from the server root into it, and then checkout the files locally again before they can be used. Is this actually correct or am I missing something? linux:~ # cd /usr/local/src linux:/usr/local/src # mkdir SimGear linux:/usr/local/src # cd SimGear linux:/usr/local/src/SimGear # cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/var/cvs/SimGear-0.3 login Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/var/cvs/SimGear-0.3 CVS password: linux:/usr/local/src/SimGear # cvs checkout SimGear cvs checkout: cannot find module `SimGear' - ignored linux:/usr/local/src/SimGear # cd .. linux:/usr/local/src # cd ../source linux:/usr/local/source # cvs checkout SimGear cvs [checkout aborted]: Cannot check out files into the repository itself linux:/usr/local/source # Could you indicate from which location your commands should be run? Thanks for taking the time over this - it has been driving me nuts.
