First of all, I'm reading this list for six months now and i think i've never seen such a lack of education. Don't forget that everybody here spends personal time to answer questions, this is not a commercial hotline. I'm surprised that anybody still takes time to answer your questions. I think that the problem is that cvsup complains only in X mode and not in shell mode. I have this problem but it doesn't bother me too much so i haven't searched in the archives at this time. > *my ISP uses dynamic adresses and i could use ftp ssh irc and netscape so > far > Question:What is to do? RTFM, Search the F.. archive, and if no applicable answer is found then post on this list following the advices found in http://www.lemis.com/questions.html. Last advice, "Be Polite".
