Anonymous CVS

This is how to setup and run CVS on you machine.

CVS is now transfered to a new secure machine. This is on cvs.mygrid.org.uk The machine is accessible via anonymous pserver The current setup for CVS is:
Protocol: pserver
Server: cvs.mygrid.org.uk
Repository Directory: /usr/local/cvs/mygrid
Username: anonymous
Module: mygrid-all
Password: email address

Windows

If you are using windows I suggest using Tortoise CVS available at http://www.tortoisecvs.org/download.shtml
When downloaded use the details above to connect and checkout the files

*NIX

If you are using *nix you will only need to run the cvs command whis is installed by defaut with most *nix setups

cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.mygrid.org.uk:/usr/local/cvs/mygrid login
cvs -d:pserver:anonymous@cvs.mygrid.org.uk:/usr/local/cvs/mygrid co module
