[kepler-dev] Still problems checking out...

[Dion Whitehead]

Hi Chad,

export CVSROOT=:ext:whitehead at cvs.ecoinformatics.org:/cvs
export CVS_RSH=ssh

cvs checkout kepler
whitehead at cvs.ecoinformatics.org's password:
cvs checkout: warning: cannot write to history file
/cvs/CVSROOT/history: Permission denied
cvs checkout: failed to create lock directory for `/cvs/kepler'
(/cvs/kepler/#cvs.lock): Permission denied
cvs checkout: failed to obtain dir lock in repository `/cvs/kepler'
cvs [checkout aborted]: read lock failed - giving up

It still doesn't work.  I tried various combinations, all with the same result.
