cvs login

2001-02-12 Thread jg5890 

i am trying to get cvs going on a linux box.  ive created a 
repository and
set up everything as specified in the book: open src devp with 
cvs...  im
getting the following error when i try to login:

c:\cvs -d :pserver:ryan@ipaddressoflinuxbox:/usr/local/cvs login
(Logging in to ryan@ipaddressoflinuxbox)
CVS password: *
Unknown host ipaddressoflinuxbox.

anything obviously wrong?  im obviously not a unix guru or even a 
conversant
unix programmer so im only following directions in the book

thanks for any help.

ryan

i have set the CVSROOT env variable to /usr/local/cvs and am
attempting to import a project.  

i type: cvs import -m "log msg" HireKnowledge username start from
within the project directory...

and i get the following error:
cvs [import aborted]: /usr/local/cvs/CVSROOT: No such file or
directory


im really lost, can anyone help me with what is undoubtedly a
minor/easy problem?
