Hi !

Unknown response received from cvs server: bash: line 1: cvs: command not found

I have set the environment variable CVS_SERVER, I have also set CVS_RSH = 
"ssh", and it didn´t work out.
I reinstalled CVS to the default directory, the paths to the binaries are set  
in /etc/profile, I deleted any other reference to the former directory.
I can execute any cvs command in the shell (bash), but I still can´t execute cvs via 
eclipse, that is, I can´t check out via extssh, it still says "command not 
found".
I tried setting the absolute path to the cvs executable in eclipse 
(Window-Preferences-Team-CVS-...), but it still doesn´t work.

What could be the problem now ?
Thanks a lot
Roberto

I´ve installed cvs in another than the default directory, but this shouldn´t be a problem ?

In fact that is the problem.  On the client, set environment
variable CVS_SERVER to the pathname where the CVS executable
resides on the server, e.g.:
        setenv CVS_SERVER /usr/local/bin/cvs
or the Bournish equivalent.

p.s. Eric, please excuse me, the mail was meant to go to the mailing list ;)
