        I can use putty to logon to minotaur using my user id and password.
I am using the SSH tunnel ( localhost:2401). I have my CVSROOT setup as
:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401:/home/cvs.  When I use WinCVS to checkout
the latest ws-axis/c or just type "cvs -d
:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401:/home/cvs -P ws-axis/c" from the command
line, I get the following error:- "cvs (checkout aborted): Error reading
from server localhost: -1: Unknown error".  For over a year and up until
yesterday, this command has never failed.  Now it always failed.  Has
something changed on minotaur that would cause this problem?

Um, you aren't supposed to be able to commit over pserver. You need to go through :ext: via SSH instead (which does not need a tunnel configured). If you can commit, then that's a serious bug we need to stop since pserver isn't supposed to be configured for commits. -- justin
