Hi there!

 : Grrr ...  I've been reading the supplied CVS documentation but I
 : don't appear to be getting anywhere with it.  There must be
 : something obvious here that I'm taking for granted.  The
 : suggestion I've seen is to use:
 :
 :    export ####@####.#### cvs -d $CVSROOT login
 :
 : which fails since bash says -d is an invalid switch.  If I put
 : double quotes around the whole rvalue (":pserver:keeling ..."),
 : it works. Also:
 :
 :    cvs -d ####@####.#### login
 :
 : works.  I try to check out the HOWTOs:

The shell builtin 'export' and a command cannot be issued to bash in
the same line.  Try this instead:

  export ####@####.####
  cvs -d $CVSROOT login

pserver on gabber.metalab.unc.edu wants to IDENT you.  tcp/113 is
ident, and is an old and venerable (possibly vestigial now)
protocol.  You could run an identd (pidentd, noidentd) if you like,
or you could just send TCP rejects:

   iptables -t filter -I INPUT -s 152.2.241.57 \
       -m tcp -p tcp --dport 113 -j REJECT

If you decide to run an identd of your own, you'll need to change
the above to the following:

   iptables -t filter -I INPUT -s 152.2.241.57 \
       -m tcp -p tcp --dport 113 -j ACCEPT

Good luck,

-Martin
