User-agent: Opera M2/7.53 (Win32, build 3850)

Now I wanted to upload a text file (zipped on Windows) via ftp and then
unzip and commit it directly on the server (using telnet).
why?

Because unfortunatly I can't use cvs from where I am... New Caledonia Lifou island. The ISP can't tell me why I only get the response to the cvs commands if I use an analogique connexion (no ADSL). There must be a firewall somewhere that blocks the server response, while any other tools like mails, ftp, surf, telnet work fine.


I also found this in the cvs help. [Does it mean that I should have used a text file with only "/n" cariage return to make my commit on linux ?]:
yes you should. There are a number of different options you can try:
- send the file (unzipped) though ftp ASCII mode
- use the dos2unix command after unzipping
- don't use ftp, let cvs handle the file transfer
- use the dos2unix command directly on the repository file (I didn't say
that)

So that's the problem.
I will use the dos2unix command after unzipping.


Thank you very much.
