I want _everybody_ to use it. :-) Can't you persuade your firewall administrator to permit you to make an outbound connection to port 5999 of one specific machine? That's all you need, if you use "-P m" on the cvsup command line. Another possibility is to tunnel using ssh, as described in cvsup(1). But you need a login account on the CVSup server host to do that. -- John Polstra jdp@polstra.com John D. Polstra & Co., Inc.
