Derek, >From the CVS manual, I see CVSROOT is indeed specified as:
[:method:][[user][:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:[port]]/path/to/repository as you say, without the colon between the hostname and the repository path. However, SmartCVS does add a colon when putting the various fields together to create a CVSROOT. The relevant changes in ChangeLog around 2000/10/17 and parse_cvsroot() in src/root.c in 1.12.9 suggest that the extra colon is still allowed. Is it in fact deprecated? ~Matt > -----Original Message----- > From: Derek Price [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Wednesday, July 06, 2005 9:02 AM > To: Matt Doar > Cc: Todd Denniston; Liquidchild; info-cvs@gnu.org > Subject: Re: Possible Spam: Re: CVS and SSH V2 > > Matt Doar wrote: > > >>>:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:22\appl\cvs\ole > >>> > >>> > > > >I believe you have to use: > > > >:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:22:/appl/cvs/ole > > > > > > You are correct about the forward slashes, but not the extra colon. > Also, specifying a port number to the :ext: method will be ignored at > best.
