[CLUE-Adm] CVS access to CLUE web site code

Greetings.

I have configured CVS for remote access to the CLUE web server code.  At this 
time the user 'anonymous' (passwd 'anonymous')  is available as a Read Only 
repository member.  We will add writable users soon.  For additional 
information about CVS, visit http://www.cvshome.org or 'man cvs'.

Once folks start editing code, we will use CVS to keep track of changes.  The 
procedure will be as below except folks that want to code would get an 
explicit CVS user name (no UNIX account required on CLUE server).  After you 
finished testing your code changes, you would issue a 'cvs commit' to commit 
your changes back to the CVS repository.

For now, you can checkout a read-only copy of the web site code.  To checkout 
the code, you need to execute 4 commands:

0.  Export the CVSROOT environmental variable to point to CLUE server:

  $ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anonymous at clue.denver.co.us:/usr/local/cvsroot

The important point to note in this env value is the 'anonymous' user.  If 
you had a write access user named bob, then you would replace anonymous with 
bob in the CVSROOT env value.  Note that anonymous is not a UNIX user on 
clue.denver.co.us.  It is merely an entry in the CVS users file.

1.  login to the cvs server.  You will be prompted for the password for user 
'anonymous'.  The password is 'anonymous'

  $ cvs login
  (Logging in to anonymous at clue.denver.co.us)
  CVS password:

2.  issue a checkout command.  I called the project 'website', so this is the 
third parameter for the 'cvs checkout' command.  You will see a bunch of 
output that shows that you are pulling files from the CLUE CVS repository.

  $ cvs  checkout website

3.  log out of cvs server

  $ cvs logout
  (Logging out of anonymous at clue.denver.co.us)

Later,
Jeff
