A bad think is that I cannot use tortoise as I am Win98.
I am really confused right now. I cannot enter the cairo cvs. And I don't understand what I am doing wrong.
I am running this : cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs@... login
It doesn't requare password and I just press enter.
And I get this : CVS.exe [login-aborted]: could not find outhome directory.
