 Naah... just put this in /etc/hosts until the `main' server is up
again: (or was that in fact really the mirror, i always forget...)

# XXX wine cvs use ursula.gmcl.com aka winehq.com 4 now
24.108.0.54     cvs.winehq.com

 You could also use cvs -d if you don't want to hack the resolver...

 Ok thanx, will try that in a moment.

 Dunno but thats also how Gmurf does it btw.

 Hell yes, why not...  thanx!

 Oh yes i _love_ those websites that take ages to display at 64kbit
(don't these `designers' know there are many people out there who
still only have a modem!) and then they can't even be used without
enabling the security hole called javascript. :(  (or with w3m, when
you don't have enough RAM for this netscape monster to be usable, or
just want someting that doesn't regularly coredump...)

 Ok that i guess i wouldn't have a problem with _if_ the thing really
does work well. (still i'd like to get Gmurf running properly first,
maybe it'll then work well enough for me that i can avoid the overhead
of running something in an emulation.)

 Mmmh although i'm not sure thats alread implemented on FreeBSD yet...

 (I wonder why such equipment nowadays not just simply has an rj45
plug and speaks proper tcp/ip, nics aren't _that_ expensive anymore.
using scsi for networking is pretty sick if you ask me...)

 Look again: there's a passthrough device for each target.  (and yes,
anything else would be silly.)

 Heh.  i guess i should explain the Subject, it has nothing to do
with VMS...

 Back in the `old days' vaxen were popular unix hosts too, so
popular that you'd often see code that made assumptions that are
only true on a vax (or at least only on _some_ systems, often
it also were things like assumptions about sizeof(int), or that
a pointer would fit in an int...)  And so the usual comment on
people writing nonportable code quickly became:  this guy is
suffering from the `all the world's a vax' syndrome!

 Well and today it still hasn't really got better, the `vax' now
just seems to be linux... :/

 (and yes now you all know i've been using unix longer than there
is linux (maybe thats another reason why i prefer the descendant
of the `real' unix that is BSD), and i also remember the good old
days on the internet before the web was invented, where you could
still post on usenet with your real From: and not have a mailbox
full of spam the next day...)

 Well, at work we recently replaced a M$ fileserver with a FreeBSD+
samba-and-a-RAID box, and when we got on the internet several years
ago we used FreeBSD for the webserver (colo'd at the isp) and for the
proxy/firewall/cache/mailserver from the beginning.  (And i can
proudly say it was me who introduced it, don't ask me what would
have been used had i not been there...  oh and the new fileserver
now wasn't even my idea.)
