At long last I think I'm back. I unsubscribed last christmas, and never got around to subscribing again (but I've still been advocating and defending wherever it came up :) I'm now on the Penn State Dubois faculty, and getting my machine running. Hopefully I can draft a student or two to turn my old mailmerge patch into a library and finally integrate it. Anyway, in the meantime, cvs doesn't like me (an ongoing occurrence). I'm running FreeBSD 4.0, and I *think* I'm following the instructions. hawkinsttyp1:hawk>setenv CVSROOT "pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/lyx/cvsroot" hawkinsttyp1:hawk>echo $CVSROOT pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/lyx/cvsroot hawkinsttyp1:hawk>cd /usr/src/ hawkinsttyp1:src>cvs login cvs login: can only use pserver method with `login' command cvs [login aborted]: CVSROOT: pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/lyx/cvsroot h I get this whether I run as a user (with appropriate permissions from the wheel group) or root. rick
