I can't use cvs, due to port blocking on our firewall & routers.
I can (did it today) wget the samba_2_2 dirs off of the cvs server.
This leads to 2 questions:
1. Are the files in the /source dirs already patched via cvs?
2. If not, how do I get cvs to update the source files?
(I've already created a local cvs repository and imported
the samba_2_2 source)

As "fun" as getting wget working through our firewall was, my short look at using cvs made me shudder! Now I can just run wget (in mirror mode) to update the source dir, look for any new stuff for ./configure (like --with-pid-dir...) and build the updated version. I'm sure cvs becomes easier with use ;-) Jim
