Can anyone run a CVS server?
I know how. I don't have a server that can host it.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Yeah, me too.

Does the host of buffistas.org allow ssh or telnet access? If so, you might be able to host CVS here.

There is ssh. But we don't have rights to install anything.

CVS is pretty standard on Unix boxes. Might be installed already.

They don't list it as a service, but I'll ask.

If it's not already installed, it can't hurt to ask if you're allowed to install it.
t edit Is it radically different from a CGI script? 'Cause you don't have to 'specially ask to install those.

I've asked. Waiting on answer.
And it's not CGI -- it's an executable. Comes in an RPM and everything. Needs to be installed as root.

No, not the pharmacy chain.
Nor my little sister. Because my parents named her with those intials, despite the fact that we live in a CVS-store region....

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
ita, if we can't get CVS installed, what about hosting development stuff at sourceforge?
