Using command-line cvs is sooooo 1990's LOL. The funny thing is, you're trying to checkout/update a project designed for Eclipse, but you haven't considered using Eclipse itself?!??! The cvs integration that the Eclipse IDE provides is pretty darn good (IMHO). I admin a project on sourceforge (shameless plug---> http://www.sf.net/projects/plexbench ) and I usually just use the CVS repository browsing perpective provided within the Eclipse ide to connect directly to sourceforge. Try it out... http://www.eclipse.org/ or /usr/ports/java/eclipse. BTW, I've been having problems running Eclipse 3.1 from ports so I haven't bothered upgrading (still using Eclipse 3.0). If anyone can shed some light on this or is having the same problem I'd love to hear from ya.
