Hi James,
1. cvs doesn't seem to work at all. It needs rsh and I can't find rsh
binaries or RPMs to install. It seems odd to me that the YiP site
wouldn't have noticed this already...
Sourceforge isn't going to let you use rsh, even if you find it. It's
too insecure. Either use SSH (required for developer access) or pserver.
Typically you'd start by setting an envvar:
export CVS_RSH=ssh
export CVSROOT=:ext:jrich@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx:/cvsroot/tn5250
then you'd run
cvs co tn5250
This probably won't work from a 5250 terminal, because CVS will want
your password for ssh to log in... but if you run it from a real Unix
terminal (I use PuTTY from windows, you could simply use xterm from
Linux) it should work okay.
... just tried it, and it worked for me ...
2. ./autogen.sh doesn't work because it can't find autoreconf. Again,
this appears to be a failing of the PASE environment (or my installation
of the tools).
I haven't tried installing these tools on IBM i for PASE... can't
comment there.
