[MITgcm-support] CVS problem, but probably exclusively mine

[Martin Losch]

Alistair,

thanks, I knew about the cvs-proxy thing, but it doesn't work for me. I 
have both a HTTP proxy and a SOCKS firewall server. Any idea how to 
configure my system so that it uses the SOCKS server? I guess, my 
question is, should it work and I can blame everything on my system 
administrators? Any experience, anyone?
