You don't need to "install" a CVS server, or port for that matter.



I advise you to go to cvshome.org to read the documentation on how to set up
a source code repository with CVS.

I also recommend not to use pserver if you can avoid it.

You can authenticate all CVS users via local accounts and SSH.

With two environmant variables
CVS_ROOT=...
CVS_RSH=...
the users then make their local CVS clients use SSH to authenticate with the
CVS server and transmit their commits enrypted.

In this way you don't need a CVS daemon running on the server.

Kind regards
Lars
