snark:~/WWW/python$ cvs -z3 -d :ext:esr@cvs.python.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/python co python
esr@cvs.python.sourceforge.net's password:
cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `' from cvs server
cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `Welcome to cvs1.sourceforge.net' from cvs server
cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `' from cvs server
cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `This is a restricted Shell Account' from cvs server
cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `You cannot execute anything here.' from cvs server
cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `' from cvs server
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if any)
That didn't work either. Anyone got any other ideas?
I seem to have CVS 1.10.7.

See, when the GOVERNMENT spends money, it creates jobs; whereas when the money
is left in the hands of TAXPAYERS, God only knows what they do with it. Bake
it into pies, probably. Anything to avoid creating jobs.
