Are these problems already known? The CVS server wants you to enter a password. The operation times out because you do not enter anything. ;) Try pressing enter (empty string) when it asks to login. Actually, it would be much better if you logged in once (manually on the terminal): export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/open-beos cvs login [on prompt press enter] Then remove the login and logout lines from your script: #!/bin/sh export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/open-beos cd ~/obos_repos cvs co . Now it should work without having to login. Bye, Waldemar
