hello list.

i am using cvs for quite a while via ext/ssh to update web-sites on my
server, everything worked fine until some days ago.
i am using the following environement variables:

(of course replace mycvshost.net with some cvshost)


printenv | grep CVS

CVSROOT=:ext:address@hidden:/home/cvs/repository
CVS_RSH=/usr/bin/ssh


now we moved to a server, we do not administer, and which for some
reason does not have name resolution. so i changed it to

CVSROOT=:ext:address@hidden:/home/cvs/repository
CVS_RSH=/usr/bin/ssh

login via ssh (ssh address@hidden)  is no problem, but cvs does not
work.

the message i get is:


cvs -t checkout -d alias -P modulename

  -> main: Session ID is 18a145505fa64567
cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot get working directory: No such file or
directory


unfortunately i have no idea left, and i did not find anything how to
proceed debugging.
any help is greatfully appreciated.

thanks in advance,

willi

What happens if you try:

ssh address@hidden ls -l /home/cvs/repository

that might show that the cvs repository isn't where you expect
it.
