RE: [V2d-discuss] CVS hosting

[Julian R. <Jul...@Ei...>]

Glenn,

I just spoke with Raphael, and it is all go with his server.

This is the information we should require:

	You can access the server at:

	http://backslashdev.dnsart.com:88/home

	Username: v2writer
	Pass: Vision2Rules

	You have administrator rights so you should be able to do whatever you
	need. Only one person can be logged at a time though (due to how
	Terminal Server licensing works).

I will be away for the next week as from tomorrow night, and uncontactable
by e-mail.

best wishes,
Julian
