[Oledb-dev] Provider question

[Konstantin Izmailov]

Hi, Shachar!
Sorry for misuse of your last name, I did not know. Dawn Sun!

I tried to use CVS-1-11-21 from
http://ftp.gnu.org/non-gnu/cvs/binary/stable/x86-woe/ and instructions from
http://www.postgresql.org/developer/sourcecode/. However, first command
"initial login" did not work:
C:\postgres>cvs -d :pserver:anoncvs at anoncvs.postgresql.org:/projects/cvsroot
login
Logging in to :pserver:anoncvs at anoncvs.postgresql.org:2401/projects/cvsroot
CVS password:
cvs [login aborted]: connect to anoncvs.postgresql.org(66.98.251.159):2401
failed: Connection refused

Would you help me to get the Provider sources from CVS?

How to "use the mailing list of Ole DB related correspondance" to send
messages to you? Is it oledb-devel at pgfoundry.org?

Thanks
Konstantin
