Well no luck with pkgsrc tonight atleast.

First off I can't access Andreas' page from my net connection here at
home I just get:

"Internal Server Error

The server encountered an internal error or misconfiguration and was
unable to complete your request.

Please contact the server administrator, root@aironaut.ch and inform
them of the time the error occurred, and anything you might have done
that may have caused the error.

More information about this error may be available in the server
error log.

Additionally, a 403 Forbidden error was encountered while trying to
use an ErrorDocument to handle the request.
Webplatz Server at www.aironaut.ch Port 80"

However I can access it from my pc at work, which I'm currently
conected to via VPN. Bizzare.

So anyway... I did

            setenv CVSROOT anoncvs@anoncvs.NetBSD.org:/cvsroot
            setenv CVS_RSH ssh
            cd /usr
            cvs checkout -P pkgsrc 

Then tried to log in using the password "anoncvs"

            qube# cvs checkout -P pkgsrc
            root@merlin's password:
            Permission denied, please try again.
            root@merlin's password:
            Permission denied, please try again.
            root@merlin's password:
            Permission denied                                    
(publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).
            cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult
above messages if any)
            qube#


So it wouldn't even let me in.

I'm a bit lost now. I can't log in to the cvs repository and I have
no idea how I'm going to remove apache, samba and mysql that I
already compiled and installed.

?

Glyn
