    Hi
    I'm wanting to get at the session4.php files but I'm stuck at the first hurdle: How do I log into CVS?

    I just need to know where to telnet to (or do I need ssh?). (I've tried sourceforge.net and telnet.sourceforge.net)

    I know this is a really ignorant question - but I couldnt see anything to say what address to use.

    Thanks!

    Peter

      Here's the SourceForge web page which describes how to get at the CVS for PHPLib using anonymous access (at htt://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=31885 ):

      Anonymous CVS Access

      This project's SourceForge CVS repository can be checked out through anonymous (pserver) CVS with the following instruction set. The module you wish to check out must be specified as the modulename. When prompted for a password for anonymous, simply press the Enter key.

      cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.phplib.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/phplib login

      cvs -z3 -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.phplib.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/phplib co modulename

      Updates from within the module's directory do not need the -d parameter.

      Hope this helps.

      If you have further problems, let us know and we'll try to help you out.

      Hi Chris

      Thanks for responding

      I saw that bit. It's just how to get at a command line that's puzzling me! I don't know where to telnet to - see what I mean about ignorant?

      Cheers
