Setting CVSRSH (to anything) makes no difference. If I run:
cvs -d :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/pdl co PDL
then I still get:
------- start ----------------------------
Runs commands on remote hosts running the RSH service.
RSH host [-l username] [-n] command
host Specifies the remote host on which to run command.
-l username Specifies the user name to use on the remote host. If
omitted, the logged on user name is used.
-n Redirects the input of RSH to NULL.
command Specifies the command to run.
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)
------- finis -----------------------------
Did you mean 'CVS_RSH' ? If I set CVS_RSH along the lines that you suggested
(tried a few variations) then I get:
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot start server via rsh: No such file or
directory
(This is using cvs-1.11.19. I might reinstall WinCVS and try with it later.
Thanks for the input - I'll certainly keep in mind that, at some stage, I
might want to set that environment variable.)
Cheers,
Rob
