I just tried to get PostgreSQL from CVS , but it rejected the password
'postgresql' for user 'anoncvs':

$ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@postgresql.org:/home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot
$ cvs login
(Logging in to anoncvs@postgresql.org)
CVS password:
cvs login: authorization failed: server postgresql.org rejected access to /home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot for user anoncvs

Then, I tried to post this to pgsql-hackers, but my scubscrption
failed, too!

Is majordomo and CVS broken, or do I need different instructions?

Hi noel,

The correct CVSROOT is now:

export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.postgresql.org:/projects/cvsroot

And the password is blank or 'postgresql'
