I like get a module from the CVS, but I don't find the CVSROOT... Anyone know it? Thanks for your help.
(Sorry for my English, I'm not a native speaker). |

The CVSROOT is the path to the CVS repository on the SERVER. You have to set it (as an envoriment variable, e.g.
| Code: | | export CVSROOT=:local:/usr/share/cvsroot |
or specify it manually using the -d option.
All this is described in detail in the "info cvs". If you need help with a specific problem, some details would help

But I don't know the 'path' for Gentoo CVS, I need something like that:
| Code: | | :pserver:user@cvs.gentoo.org:/path/to/cvsroot/ |
But I don't find it... |
