It looks like you supplied credentials that Fink couldn't parse, perhaps. The text above what you posted might provide us with more information about that. If you want to use cvs for updates, then the easiest way to reset your credentials to try again is to toggle via: fink selfupdate-rsync fink selfupdate-cvs Make sure to put just your username and not your user directory at the "...Please specify the user login name that should be used:" prompt (judging by the /Users/Bob above). -- Alexander Hansen, Ph.D. Fink User Liaison My package updates: http://finkakh.wordpress.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Infragistics Professional Build stunning WinForms apps today!
