What's unfortunate is that the repository identification syntax does not experss the protocol, so you have to use the CVS_RSH hack to do so, relying on command compatibility of ssh and rsh. Then the purpose of CSV_RSH would be relegated to selecting an alternate rsh implementation, not to switch to a different rsh-compatible transport. An extension along the lines: :ext-rsh:user@host:/path/to/repo :ext-ssh:user@host:/path/to/repo could be the thing. _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
