There are three connection options: pserver, ext and extssh. They all create CVS/Root entries like this ":pserver:user:/path". But when working on the same file system you would like to have a local connection possibility (getting CVS/Root entries "/path"). On our system I can't do CVS operations outside Eclipse with the current CVS/Root entries. I get messages like: cvs update: Unknown method (`extssh') in CVSROOT. cvs [update aborted]: Bad CVSROOT:`:extssh:liden@localhost:/carm/2_CVS'. Then I have to explicity give the repository with "cvs -d /carm/2_CVS", which is a nuisance. So, my enhancement suggestion is to add a "Local connection" option. /Tomas
