List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: Ok, here's the scoop on my problem--or half the scoop! Yes, I'm connected to the Internet; first thing I checked. It's obviously something with my setup--or lack of setup with cvs. When I first wanted to use ./checkout a few weeks ago, I didn't know anything about it so just downloaded cvs with whatever configuring apt-get in debian did. When I used ./checkout, it worked but complained about cvsroot not being set. Then when I wanted to try to access linux-speakup.org to update speak_freely, what I had done didn't work and I dug into the cvs-howto. Added what I was told to add to /etc/profile, set up /home/cvsroot, but then got stuck on what was said about scripts. Oh, I also downloaded rcs and the packages that debian chose to download with it. Anyway, either what I did so far was wrong, or what I haven't done yet was critical, or both, because I don't think cvs was even trying to go out on the net. So what I have done as a temporary fix, until I figure out all about cvs, is uninstall cvs, rcs, etc., take the lines out of my /etc/profile, and run ./checkout. I know this isn't right, but it went back to working and only complaining about cvsroot not being set; maybe adding that back into my /etc/profile would solve that particular problem. Thanks for all the suggestions. Cheryl
