This is a wrong command; you should checkout using your login: export CVS_RSH=ssh cvs -z3 -d:ext:aschw...@cvs.savannah.gnu.org:/web/gslip co gslip In order to do this, you'll need an access to your ssh key (the key you registered in your Savannah account); by the way, ssh may not find it if you generated a key with a non-default name (e.g. ~/.ssh/savannah-key.pub and ~/.ssh/savannah-key rather than ~/.ssh/id_rsa and ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub); you'll need ssh-agent in order to use such keys. > cp (various > data into subfolders) > cvs login You don't need cvs login, just cvs add, like this your command: > cvs add index.html ...and then cvs commit index.html > cvs [server aborted]: "add" requires write access to the repository This is because you checked out web pages anonymously. > I've tried to do my homework and not ask foolish questions, foolish > though those questions might be.
