Hi!

I tried to get the latest ecos sources. After I typed the following command to
login to the CVS server, the error message came out.

cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.cygnus.com:/cvs/ecos login
(Logging in to anoncvs@anoncvs.cygnus.com)
CVS.EXE [login aborted]: could not find out home directory

What might be wrong?

Jason

Is this a native windows or cygwin CVS client? Well, whichever, set the
environment variable HOME to / or perhaps to C:\

Typo:

cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.cygnus.com:/cvs/ecos

should be

cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@sourceware.cygnus.com:/cvs/ecos

(or sources.redhat.com)

No, all the above should work. I suppose sources.redhat.com should be
preferred though. I'll update the web page.
