Folks-

  Has the password for anoncvs been changed? I can't seem to get into it

I am confused.  Is the path /projects/cvsroot or just /cvsroot, and is
the anoncvs password blank or 'postgresql'.

OK, one more question.  With non-anon cvs, I use /cvsroot, not
/projects/cvsroot.  Is that correct?  I need to update cvs.sgml too.

Still no good for me:

protocol error: directory '/home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot/pgsql/src/backend/access/heap' not within root '/projects/cvsroot'

Checking:
% pwd
/usr/src/local/pgsql/src/backend/access/heap
% cat CVS/Root
:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.postgresql.org:/projects/cvsroot


?

okay, somehow you have two different CVSROOT's configured?
/home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot was the old server, /projects/cvsroot is the
new one ....

Any hints? I had done a (csh)
cd /usr/src/local/pgsql
find . -name Root -print > allroots
grep -v CVS allroots
foreach i ( `cat allroots`)
  echo ":pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.postgresql.org:/projects/cvsroot" > $i
end

and CVSROOT is not set as an environment variable... Also odd that it
appears there and there is no sign of "home" anywhere..

Got it: had /home/... in pgsql/src/backend/access/heap/CVS/Repository (!)
All OK now..
