Some bourne shells allow you to combine the two statements into one:

     export CVS_RSH=/usr/bin/ssh

in addition, you don't really need to use a full pathname for ssh, so

    export CVS_RSH=ssh

is usually good enough.

If you wish to determine if a shell variable has been exported into the
environment, you may wish to use the 'printenv' command:

    printenv CVS_RSH

Or, you could have your 'echo' command inside of a shell script that you
run.

        Enjoy!
