hypermail-2b30-2mdk.i586.rpm

  CVS Server is up and running folks.  Thanks to Elliot Lee
  <sopwith@redhat.com> for helping with setting it up, Daniel Stenberg
  <Daniel.Stenberg@haxx.nu> with his contributions and everyone else for being
  so patient while we make the transition from one place to another.  There is
  still alot of work to be done with 'The Hyper Project' as I lovingly call it
  now. :) But together we'll all get there, helping one another.

  Now on to the info for the CVS server:

	Address: :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.org:/CVS

  The 'cvs' user doesn't have a password, so just hit return when it asks you
  for one.  Also, the cvs user only has read access, so don't try to do
  anything funny. :)

  For those of you who have never used a cvs server to grab sources, here's a
  short rundown of the thing:

   - Obtain the cvs source at http://download.cyclic.com/pub/

   - Compile and install the client (you can disable the server with the
     --disable-server during the 'configure' command.  Read the INSTALL
     file once you're uncompressed the archive)

   - Once installed, set your CVSROOT enviroment to:

     :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.org:/CVS

     For sh, bash and ksh users, execute the following commands:
     CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.org:/CVS
     export CVSROOT
     (or you can stick them in your .profile and/or .bash_profile file)

     For C shell users (csh, tcsh), you can do the following:
     setenv CVSROOT :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.org:/CVS
     (or stick it in your .cshrc and/or .login file)

   - From here you can login to the server with:
     # cvs login
     (Logging in to cvs@cvs.hypermail.org)
     CVS password:  <-- hit RETURN (cvs user password is blank)

   - Now you're ready to grab the source
     # cvs checkout hypermail

     This will create a mirror of the sources in your account/on your machine
     called 'hypermail' that you can then compile and play with (just play
     safe and clean, ok?)

   - Once done, don't forget to log out:
     # cvs logout

  All of the above commands can be performed without having to set a CVSROOT
  enviroment if you want, it's just a lot more to type in since you'll have to
  specify the directory every time with:

   -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.org:/CVS

  eg: cvs -d :pserver:cvs@cvs.hypermail.org:/CVS login


Cheers.

  Addendum #1: You can also browse the repository at:
    http://cvsweb.hypermail.org/

  Addendum #2: Pathnames have changed from /cvs/hypermail to /CVS

  Addendum #3: [2000.05.28] The hypermail sources got retagged with new date
    and times due to the server rebuild.  Sorry.

  Addendum #4: [2000.05.30] (how many will we add?) server name changed from
    cvs.hypermail.yeehaw.net to simply cvs.hypermail.org.
