Re: [Scriptonite-dev] CVS access rights

[Etienne M. G. <eg...@j-...>]

Apparently, one of the easiest way to go around the WinXX cvs/ssh
problems is to cheat;-)

You use ssh to login into your shell1.sourceforge.net.

There, you simply checkout using cvs/ssh (as described in the UNIX
documentation).  You must only be careful using @cvs1  instead of
cvs.scriptonite.sourcefoge.net as you are inside their firewall.  

Here's a sample session (from my own Linux station).

$ ssh -P -l egagnon shell1.sourceforge.net

        Move to the new webserver failed, bad SCSI disk.  I will
        replace the disk ASAP and get the move underway.  We'll
        shoot for another move Monday.

        The directories in /home/groups will be changing to all

[egagnon@orbital egagnon]$ export CVS_RSH=ssh
[egagnon@orbital egagnon]$ cvs -z3 -degagnon@cvs1:/cvsroot/scriptonite
co scriptonite

Now, I can simply go and replace scriptonite/src/* by new versions and
check-in the result;-)

You can use "scp" to copy files over.

I hope this solves your problem
