| Specifying a repository location</h3> |
| <p CLASS="Head">Before it is possible to share the project with other users an |
| available repository must first be specified.</p> |
| <ol> |
| <li>Open the CVS Repository Exploring perspective. The top left view shows all |
| of the CVS repositories that are currently being worked with. As can be seen, |
| the view is empty, meaning a repository still needs to be specified. </li> |
| <li>In the context menu of the CVS Repositories view choose <b>New > Repository |
| Location</b>. |

| </blockquote> |
| </blockquote> |
| </li> |
| <li>In the CVS Repository Location wizard, the location of the repository and |
| the login information needs to be filled in. Assistance from a repository |
| administrator may be required in order to fill in the necessary information. |

| <li> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> In the <b> Host </b> field, type the address of the host |
| (for example, "teamsamples.com").</P> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> In the <b> Repository path </b> field, type the path for |
| the repository at the host address (for example, "/home/cvsroot/repositoryName").</P> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <P CLASS="Para">In the <b> User </b> field, type the user name under which |
| to connect.</P> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <P CLASS="Para">In the <b>Password</b> field, type the password.</P> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> In the <b> Connection type </b> field, select the type of |
| CVS connection for the repository (The default is pserver). </P> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> Leave<b> Use Default Port</b> enabled. </P> |
| </li> |
| <li>By default the <b>Validate Connection on Finish<b> option </b></b>is checked. |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> Click <b>Finish</b> when done.</P> |
| <P CLASS="Para"> Since <b>Validate location on finish </b>was checked,<b> |
| </b>the wizard will now attempt to validate the information by connecting |
| to the repository. In doing so it may prompt for a password. <strong>Note: |
| </strong>The repository connection is only used to validate the information.</P> |
| </li> |
| <li> |
| <P CLASS="Para">Observe that the CVS Repositories view now shows the new repository |
| location.</P> |
