Until Lars reinstates the nightly cvs snapshots, I'd like to get gnus
from cvs. There's a problem though - things seem to hang after I
enter the password, and I eventually interrupt the command.
I'm on a linux box ("seton", below), dialed into some machine at work
that's behind a firewall. How can I access cvs.gnus.org?
,----[ ~/.bashrc ]
| CVS_RSH=SSH
| export CVS_RSH
`----
,----[ *shell* buffer ]
| [billw@seton billw]$ cvs -d :pserver:gnus@cvs.gnus.org:/usr/local/cvsroot login
| (Logging in to gnus@cvs.gnus.org)
| CVS password: (here I typed "gnus" and waited)
| cvs [login aborted]: received interrupt signal
| [billw@seton billw]$ CVS_RSH=ssh
| [billw@seton billw]$ cvs -d :pserver:gnus@cvs.gnus.org:/usr/local/cvsroot login
| (Logging in to gnus@cvs.gnus.org)
| CVS password: (here I typed "gnus" and waited)
| cvs [login aborted]: received interrupt signal
| [billw@seton billw]$

Thanks -

If the problem is because of the firewall and you can use CONNECT
command of the HTTP proxy, try patch your cvs to use HTTP tunnel. The
patch is at
