It's hard to say -- you haven't said what version of CVS you're running or exactly what goes wrong. Perhaps your server is too old to understand empty passwords. Perhaps your client is too old to understand anonymous access. Perhaps you did something else wrong. -Larry Jones In my opinion, we don't devote nearly enough scientific research to finding a cure for jerks. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
