OK, here is a summary of the steps involved for me to create a local
repository behind a firewall:
- SOCKS5 (needed if you are behind a firewall)
+ Download:
http://www.socks.nec.com/cgi-bin/download.pl
+ Build and install.
+ Configure to use a socks5 server your site provides:
* Create /etc/libsocks5.conf:
sockd @=<your_socks_server>,<your_socks_server>.<domain> 0.0.0.0 0.0.0.0
+ Reference:
http://www.socks.nec.com/socksv5.html
+ How to socksify an application:
http://www.socks.nec.com/how2socksify.html
- CVS
+ Download:
http://www.cyclic.com/pub/
+ Build and install.
+ Reference Manual, etc.:
http://www.loria.fr/~molli/cvs-index.html
- rsync
+ Download:
http://rsync.samba.org/
+ Socksify rsync source (needed if you are going to use rsync from
behind a firewall), the quick'n'dirty approach:
* main.c (main): add 'SOCKSinit (argv[0]);' to the beginning
of main ().
+ rsync.h: add '#define SOCKS' and '#include <socks.h>' to the
beginning of file.
+ Makefile.in: add '-L/usr/local/lib' (or the libsocks5 install
location) and '-lsocks5' to the rsync link line.
+ Configure / Make / Install.
+ Reference:
rsync(1) man page.

- Local repository creation:
% mkdir -p <local_repository_root>
% cd <local_repository_root>
% rsync --archive --delete --checksum --compress --stats \
rsync://sourceware.cygnus.com/src-cvs .
- Extract source (this creates <work_directory>/src/ tree with all
necessary gdb and dejagnu components):
% setenv CVSROOT <local_repository_root>
% cd <work_directory>
% cvs checkout -r HEAD dejagnu gdb
- Routine synchronization of src-cvs repository:
Use the same rsync command above to synchronize.
That's it! BTW the <local_repository_root>/CVSROOT/modules file lists
the module aliases / names in the repository, and I found it useful to
decide the module names to use in the cvs checkout command line.
Also, the rsync command line below dumps the list of repositories
available, which I used to figure out that the repository name
for src/cvs is actually src-cvs (that was not apparent to me as a
non-CVS user and was not mentioned in the
sourceware.cygnus.com/sourceware 'anonymous rsync' link):
% rsync --archive --delete --checksum --compress --stats \
rsync://sourceware.cygnus.com/ .
