Sorry to bother you guys, but this mail is for Dan Shaerer only. I can't reach you Dan on Dan.Shearer@unisa.edu.au. I get : <Dan.Shearer@unisa.edu.au>... Deferred: Connection timed out during initial connection with lv.levels.unisa.edu.au. Warning: message still undelivered after 1 hour Will keep trying until message is 3 days old Some time ago I sent you a reply on your mail regarding accessing the samba source directly via CVS. I get the impression my reply did not reach you, so I try again. I acces the Internet via a firewall. How does this complicate usage of ssh and remote CVS ? Erik 'Samba for STRATUS VOS' Devriendt
