Fellow DJGPPers,

  Becoming increasingly interested in looking at some of the libc
source code, a couple of weeks ago I decided to try out CVS.  I have
access to a fast connection at work, so I followed the instructions on
the "DJGPP in CVS" web page (http://www.delorie.com/djgpp/cvs.html). 
I set the environment variables as instructed, logged in using the
"anonymous" password, and everything went perfect... no problem.
  When I tried it at home, where I only have a modem connection, and I
can't even log in.  I've searched all over the net for the past week
looking for some sort of similar complaint, but to no avail.  I assume
that the slow connection disqualifies me for some reason, but the web
page I referred to above doesn't state that.
  I want to run to run this by the masters before I give up.  I know
that I have the alternative of using the web interface and manually
loading individual files, but after seeing how easily things ought to
work doing it the hard way seems like lunacy!


Thanks,
Dave W.
