I advise you to go to cvshome.org to read the documentation on how to set up a source code repository with CVS. I also recommend not to use pserver if you can avoid it. You can authenticate all CVS users via local accounts and SSH. With two environmant variables CVS_ROOT=... CVS_RSH=... the users then make their local CVS clients use SSH to authenticate with the CVS server and transmit their commits enrypted. In this way you don't need a CVS daemon running on the server. Kind regards Lars
