Unless I'm mistaken, you can't CVS through Proxy.
I think I've asked/googled around. Only thing I found was
references made like 5 years ago that had anything that
resembles cvs through proxy.

There was also suggestion to use desproxy to tunnel cvs
or some kind of web-bases cvs that you can use a proggie
to sort of screen scrape. I forget.




The following message just moved on the CVS list this evening.

=============================


I just cleaned up and checked in a patch to feature that was previously
cleaned up by Jim Kingdon in 98 or so
(<http://www.cvshome.org/cyclic/cvs/dev-http.txt>). It enables CVS
access through HTTP tunnel web proxies.


I don't have access to any working web proxies myself, so I could only
test that the parser works correctly.  If anyone with access to a web
proxy would care to test it, I would appreciate feedback.

There are a variety of patches to CVS to allow for HTTP proxy use. The CVS client that comes with WinCVS [also available as gCVS for unix and MacCVS for Macintosh] comes with one of the http proxy patches included.

A small note for anyone trying to compile gCVS on Fedora - I had to make a few patches.... I have an RPM and SRPM files if anyone is interested in hosting. By default, it puts the binaries in /usr/local/bin.

You can get WinCVS, gCVS and MacCVS from http://cvsgui.sourceforge.net/
