I've tried your exact command, with 'export CVS_RSH=ssh' (I use bash, not a csh-ish shell). I've done it in a working directory which is mounted in binary (unix) mode, and in one which is mounted in text (DOS) mode. In both cases, it works without error. Now, that's started from a standstill (no previous checkout). I note that when I do this 'beginning' checkout from a text mode working directory, the following files have '^M' endings: */CVS/Entries */CVS/Entries.log */CVS/Repository */CVS/Root */CVS/Tag That might be a bad thing -- since it would tend to mess up future 'update' checkouts (and cvs diffs, and ...) ***IF*** cvs is opening those files for READ in binary mode (that is, not translating the '^M's away). But it doesn't. I mean, cvs opens those files in the appropriate mode, stripping away the '^M's as far as I can tell. I'm going to need more information. "Run 'cygcheck -s -v -r > cygcheck.out' and include that file as an attachment in your report. Please do not compress or otherwise encode the output. Just attach it as a straight text file so that it can be easily viewed." -- Chuck -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
