[Vif-devel] Update

Hello Benno,

I have finally been able to create and connect to the
repository.

During the repository creation, the default for
'Connection Type' came as 'extssh', which I  replaced
by 'pserver' from the drop down. So for a new
repository creation we need to provide the following
details-
Host: cvs.sourceforge.net Repository path:
/cvsroot/vif 
User: anonymous 
Password: (none)
Connection Type: pserver
(on my machine 'extssh' was the default.
Interestingly, help document says that pserver is the
default provided. May be your installation has this?
Which then explains why things went smooth in a fresh
workbench.)

As it is we are talking about it, I checked what the
connection types mean in help.
There are three connection methods that come with the
Eclipse CVS client: 
pserver - a CVS specific connection method. 
extssh - an SSH 2.0 client included with Eclipse 
ext - the CVS ext connection method which uses an
external tool such as SSH to connect to the
repository. The tool used by ext is configured in the
Team > CVS > EXT Connection Method preference page. 

STATUS:
1. I have created 5 java projects and 1 simple project
of scripts and I have got the latest code from the CVS
now.

2. For the 'CVSROOT' folder in CVS, I have not created
a project yet. Please let me know if I need to create
it as a seperate project and which 'project type' to
be used for it. ('CVS' or 'Java Project')?

Thanks for your help in all this.

Regards,
Leena
