                      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.
