It properly prompts for password, etc. But when cvs invokes vi after that, vi quits immediately with: ``Error: input: Resource temporarily unavailable'' Other non-X editors break in a similar fasion. >How-To-Repeat: See Environment and Description. >Fix: . Use RSH, which is insecure and requires use of .rhost, which is even worse, with CVS_RSH environment variable, or . Use some X-editor, such as gvim or xedit, with EDITOR environment variable: env EDITOR=xedit cvs commit >Release-Note: >Audit-Trail: >Unformatted: To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-bugs" in the body of the message
