hi, dear experts,

i am a newbie to CVS. i install a gCVS1.0a4 in a sparc/solaris2.6 machine. i
have some question about CVS/gCVS.

1. i heard from internet that tkCVS is the most favorite UNIX GUI. is it
true? how about gCVS? Consided with learning curve, how much do u think a
GUI is necessary for beginners? The members of my group think command line
is not easy to use.

2. i tried WinCVS before gCVS, both has similar interface. i found that: (A)
i can't input CVS command line in "status view wor,space" while i can do it
in wincvs; (B)the "creat new repository" doesn't work, i have to input "cvs
init" by hand; (C)there is a feature in graph selected. in wincvs, when i
click the version box, its corresponding status will be showed in status
view workspace. but in gcvs , this feature disappears. I want to know: are
the problems above due to gcvs' not-done, or my mis-compile?

3. about CVS server. I want to setup a simplest one in this point, no
password, no authentication. what's the way?

any reponse is highly appreciated. thanks in advance!
