1. Checkout with
<a href="http://www.TortoiseCVS.org"target="_blank">TortoiseCVS:
TortoiseCVS, a Win-Explorer-plugin, works with Windows 95, 98, ME, NT, 2000 and XP, is very similar to
<a href="http://www.wincvs.org"target="_blank">winCVS: Here the
<a href="http://www.tortoisecvs.org/download.shtml"target="_blank">TortoiseCVS-Download. For an anonymous CVS-checkout, you don´t need a developer-account:
a. Get
<a href="http://www.TortoiseCVS.org"target="_blank">TortoiseCVS, (stable version 0.44 recommendet) as a Executable: Install it on your machine and create a CVS_Sandbox: install also an ssh-ftp-client, eg. from <a href="ftp://ftp.cert.dfn.de/pub/tools/net/ssh/"target="_blank">Ftp-Client. See the
<a href="http://centre.ics.uci.edu/~grape/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=25&mode=&order=0"target="_blank">Tutorial for the PN-module-checkout :
b. create a folder for your checkout and right-click on it. In the content menu choose CVS - Checkout and provide the following information:
-
Module
Protocol - Internet (secure shell)
Server - cvs.hostnuke.com
Repository Directory - /home/cvsroot
User name - anonymous
Module - postnuke_official
-
Revision
Get tag/branch: - PostNuke_71
c. when checking out a dos-box will open. type 'anonymous' as password. (if checking out as registered dev you need to provide your username/password combination)
Note. I strongly recommend to use the stable VERSION .044 to checkout from cvs.hostnuke.com. With the newer version Tortoise .054 several troubles can occur, depending on your Win-environment.
2. checkout with
anonymous-access to CVS via command-line:
The PostNuke tree is in the directory postnuke_official. To do a checkout of the complete code (main branch) use:
# export CVS_RSH=ssh
then:
To check out the .7 maintenance branch use
cvs -d :ext:username@cvs.hostnuke.com:/home/cvsroot co -r PostNuke_71 postnuke_official
please provide:
user: anonymous
pass: anonymous
-> this means:
cvs -d :ext:anonymous@cvs.hostnuke.com:/home/cvsroot co -d PN_7_Series
-r PostNuke_71 postnuke_official
and for current .8 CVS.
export CVS_RSH=ssh
cvs -d:ext:anonymous@cvs.hostnuke.com:/home/cvsroot co -P postnuke_all
the password is anonymous
3.
WinCVS-Access: with
<a href="http://www.wincvs.org"target="_blank">winCVS:
get <a href="http://www.wincvs.org"target="_blank">winCVS for your windows or mac-machine:
in addition you need a <a href="ftp://ftp.ssh.com/pub/ssh"target="_blank">ssh-client and the <a href="http://www.Python.org"target="_blank">python V. 2.2xx-version.
The next step is to set up the WinCVS Admin->Preferences settings:
The Wincvs Admin->Preferences settings are:
authentication: ssh
path: /home/cvsroot
host address: cvs.hostnuke.com
username: anonymous
Select "Show CVS console (open TTY)"
