no. i'm afraid i had a typo (in my email). cvs -d :pserver:www.symbion.at:2401/home login or cvs -d :pserver:www.symbion.at:/home login should be the right syntax.
anyway, in the first case - with port - there must not be a second ":", otherwise i get lectrix@symbion home $ cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401:/home login cvs login: CVSROOT may only specify a positive, non-zero, integer port (not `2401:'). cvs login: Perhaps you entered a relative pathname? cvs [login aborted]: Bad CVSROOT: `:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401:/home'. so, the syntax was not my porblem. that is strange, i couldn't really find any information on the web that can help me out, so didn't anybody has this before?? stefan. should be the right syntax.
