Hi all, I've been trying WinCVS (http://cvsgui.sourceforge.net) for the last few days, and it allows the end-user to specify a proxy (Admin -> Preferences... -> General tab -> Settings...). In order to know whether it works for your proxy, try telnetting to the proxy (on its HTTP proxy port), and issue the following request:
CONNECT cvs.ethereal.com:2401 HTTP/1.0<newline> <newline> (Replace <newline> with a newline character.) If your proxy answers with "HTTP/1.1 200" then you can use WinCVS. Otherwise you can fall back on CVSgrab, or you may want to ask the IT support to allow this CONNECT request. Regards, Olivier
