The correct repository name is "/cvsroot/open-beos" try again with that 
one. "current" is only the misnamed "openbeos" module. I don't think it 
could work the way you are trying to.
It's not always BeOS - it's always a good idea to start by yourself 
when you are searching for a solution :)

I don't think you are allowed to use SSH as long as you are not a 
member of our team. Linux probably won't help you there (it mustn't).
