Hi Philippe, you should have write access, as you are a member of open-beos at sourceforge.net Somewhere on SF there is docu how to use cvs for the first time... http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=765&group_id=1 http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=763&group_id=1 AFAIK you have to log in to the SF shell and have to use cvs there for the first time, otherwise it will not work if you want to use it on your locale machine: ssh -l phoudoin shell.sf.net Then you need to check out the print_kit module there: export CVS_RSH=ssh export CVSROOT=phoudoin@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/open-beos cvs -z3 co print_kit Now you can exit the SF shell and you should be able to check out the module on your machine. If you have installed ssh and cvs under BeOS the same three lines from above should work. You have to copy the files/directories you want to add into the checked out directory tree and from there you can add them to the cvs repository. e.g. if you have added a directory and in this a file: cvs -z3 add directory cvs -z3 commit cd directory cvs -z3 add file cvs -z3 commit Note if you omit -z3 under BeOS, cvs sometimes does not terminate and you have to hit control-C. - Michael
