[John Thomas <jthomas119_NOSPAM_@xxxxxxxxx>]

Marlies,

Perhaps you could use another CVS client program like TortoiseCVS or 
WinCVS or CVS commandline to access the eclipse cvs server and then once 
you have the source on your system, import it into Eclipse.  These other 
cvs clients may have abilities that the eclipse Team support lacks. 
Anonymous pserver access is widespread (e.g. sourceforge ...) and I 
would be surprised if there is no way for your installation to access 
these servers.
