Read PHP4 CVS tree

Hi there, I'm a bit new to the CVS... I've tried to connect/read the PHP4 tree from cvs.php.net using the following: cvs -d :pserver:cvsread@cvs.php.net:/repository login but it never asks me for a password (as I expect)... It gives me an error: (Logging in to cvsread@cvs.php.net) CVS.EXE [login aborted]: could not find out home directory Of course I tried to set the environment variable (CVSROOT) to any possible value I could think of :-) Like set CVSROOT=c:\cvs\php4 or set CVSROOT=/cvs/php4 or even set CVSROOT=:local:/cvs/php4 :-) Nothing happens (a part from the same error)... I'm starting to think that this is not the point... :-) BTW, I'm trying to download the tree using CVS for Windows (it's the only way I have to use this WinModem :-( Any suggestion would be appreciated, thanks Marco
