[savannah-help-public] [sr #109864] Cannot access CVS web pages repository as member

Follow-up Comment #2, sr #109864 (project administration):

Thanks for the info, this confirmed that the problem was in my setup.
Turned out that doing "export CVS_RSH=ssh" before the checkout fixed the
issue.

Kind regards,

Slawomir

Follow-up Comment #3:

If adding export CVS_RSH=ssh fixed it for you does that mean you have an
actual "rsh" command installed that is not a symlink to "ssh"?

If so then I recommend uninstalling the old rsh.  It is insecure and should
not be used anywhere on the Internet.  The 'r'-commands from the old Berkeley
toolset were designed for a friendlier age. Removing rsh will have most
package managers automatically configuring an rsh symlink alternative to point
to ssh.  And then no special configuration for CVS_RSH is needed.
