RMS asked me to help with the relicensing of emacs. I've having
trouble checking it out. Here's what RMS asked me to do:

Would you like to relicense the EMACS_22_BASE branch of Emacs now?
If so, please start by checking out that branch, installing the
new license in COPYING, and updating the headers in all the files
that refer to it.
What command(s) should I use? I tried the following things, which
did not work:
;;; Wed 11 Jul 2007
$ export CVS_RSH=ssh
$ cvs -z3 -d:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/emacs co .
Permission denied (publickey).
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above
messages if any)
$ cvs -d:ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/emacs login
cvs login: can only use `login' command with the 'pserver' method
cvs [login aborted]: CVSROOT: :ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/
emacs
;;; Maybe I missed something above...
$ cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/sources/emacs login
Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/sources/emacs
CVS password:
cvs login: authorization failed: server cvs.savannah.gnu.org rejected
access to /sources/emacs for user gsk
;;; Thu 12 Jul 2007
;;; on advice from rms
$ cvs -z3 -d [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/emacs/ co emacs
ssh: cvs.subversions.gnu.org: No address associated with nodename
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above
messages if any)
