Before you run `cvs login', create a file called .cvspass in your home directory. It should be empty and chmod'ed to relatively strict permissions (0600 should be fine). > cvs checkout: unrecognized auth response from 10.200.4.198: +no repository configured in /etc/cvs/cvs.conf This is a response from the server. Apparently, the Linux machine stores CVS repository configuration information in /etc/cvs/cvs.conf and there's some problem with that file. Read the documentation of the Linux distribution to find out why this fails and how to fix it. -- FreeBSD: The Power to Serve -- http://www.FreeBSD.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
