Maybe raster or KainX has some comments on mirror policy, we haven't discussed that yet. As far as requirements... Most of the webhosting packages won't support a cvs mirror, unless you can get them to install additional applications and open the pserver port for cvs. A VPS with support or root access and your own ability to install programs will work. The viewcvs I posted is hosted at rapidvps.com (and could support anon cvs access also.) You currently need 785M of space for the repository, as in: > du -s 784996 . You need cvs installed, the network port for cvspserver(tcp/2401) open, and incoming services (inetd/xinetd) needs to handle incoming cvspserver on an attach request. There are some other options, but not for direct anon cvs access. You can read about more secure ways to setup anon cvs and other options at: http://www.faqs.org/docs/Linux-mini/Secure-CVS-Pserver.html -- Kevin ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by xPML, a groundbreaking scripting language that extends applications into web and mobile media.
