        !             4: 
        !             5:   CVS Server is up and running folks.  Thanks to Elliot Lee
        !             6:   <sopwith@redhat.com> for helping with setting it up, Daniel Stenberg
        !             7:   <Daniel.Stenberg@sth.frontec.se> with his contributions and everyone else
        !             8:   for being so patient while we make the transition from one place to another.
        !             9:   There is still alot of work to be done with 'The Hyper Project' as I
        !            10:   lovingly call it now. :) But together we'll all get there, helping one
        !            11:   another.
        !            12: 
        !            13:   Now on to the info for the CVS server:
        !            14: 
        !            15: 
        !            16:        Address: :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net:/cvs/hypermail
        !            17: 
        !            18:   The 'cvs' user doesn't have a password, so just hit return when it asks you
        !            19:   for one.  Also, the cvs user only has read access, so don't try to do
        !            20:   anything funny. :)
        !            21: 
        !            22:   For those of you who have never used a cvs server to grab sources, here's a
        !            23:   short rundown of the thing:
        !            24: 
        !            25:    - Obtain the cvs source at http://download.cyclic.com/pub/
        !            26: 
        !            27:    - Compile and install the client (you can disable the server with the
        !            28:      --disable-server during the 'configure' command.  Read the INSTALL
        !            29:      file once you're uncompressed the archive)
        !            30: 
        !            31:    - Once installed, set your CVSROOT enviroment to:
        !            32: 
        !            33:      :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net:/cvs/hypermail
        !            34: 
        !            35:      For sh, bash and ksh users, execute the following commands:
        !            36:      CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net:/cvs/hypermail
        !            37:      export CVSROOT
        !            38:      (or you can stick them in your .profile and/or .bash_profile file)
        !            39: 
        !            40:      For C shell users (csh, tcsh), you can do the following:
        !            41:      setenv CVSROOT :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net:/cvs/hypermail
        !            42:      (or stick it in your .cshrc and/or .login file)
        !            43: 
        !            44:    - From here you can login to the server with:
        !            45:      # cvs login
        !            46:      (Logging in to cvs@cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net)
        !            47:      CVS password:  <-- hit RETURN (cvs user password is blank)
        !            48: 
        !            49:    - Now you're ready to grab the source
        !            50:      # cvs checkout hypermail
        !            51: 
        !            52:      This will create a mirror of the sources in your account/on your machine
        !            53:      called 'hypermail' that you can then compile and play with (just play
        !            54:      safe and clean, ok?)
        !            55: 
        !            56:    - Once done, don't forget to log out:
        !            57:      # cvs logout
        !            58: 
        !            59:   All of the above commands can be performed without having to set a CVSROOT
        !            60:   enviroment if you want, it's just a lot more to type in since you'll have to
        !            61:   specify the directory every time with:
        !            62: 
        !            63:    -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net:/cvs/hypermail
        !            64: 
        !            65:   eg: cvs -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net:/cvs/hypermail login
        !            66: 
        !            67: 
        !            68: Cheers.
