RE: [platform-vcm-dev] How to use an already checked out cvs-project in

["Daniel Portmann" <daniel.portmann@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Michael,

I am not sure what you mean by saying I should connect using
SSH 1 and a password: Using VCM 1.0?

Basically I can connect using Team 2.0 but when checking out
from Eclipse, I won't be able to use the external CVS clients
anymore because they won't understand the extssh entries
in the CVS\Root file(s).
