OK, in that case you install the cvs package from sunfreeware.com as explained before. After that you have the cvs command available in /usr/local/bin.

To connect to a remote cvs server you have to construct the proper CVSROOT variable. Lets assume the remote site uses pserver protocol, your username on that machine is flavio, the full qualified domain name of that machine is cvs.example.com and the repository on the machine is in /cvsroot/software (you get that information from the administrator of the cvs server machine).

Then your CVSROOT would be

Code:
CVSROOT=:pserver:flavio@cvs.example.com:/cvsroot/software
export CVSROOT

You can put these two lines in your .profile (assuming you are using sh, ksh, bash or simular).

After the CVSROOT is set you can do

Code:
cvs login

which prompts for your password on the cvs server an stores it encrypted in the file .cvspass in your home directory. After that you can check out a module from the cvs server and work with the files.

NAME

       install-solaris - install the Solaris operating system

SYNOPSIS

       install-solaris

       install-solaris	invokes  the  Solaris  Install	program. Depending on graphical capability and available memory at the time of invocation,
       install-solaris invokes either a text-based installer or a graphical installer.

       The following minimum requirements for physical memory dictate which features are available during installation:

       For SPARC machines:

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory for all installation types

       128 MB

	   Minimum physical memory required for windowing system

       512 MB

       In some cases, even if the minimum physical memory is present, available virtual memory after system startup can limit the number  of  fea-
       tures available.
