RE: Help with pam support patching cvs 1.11.17

[Jeremy Bopp]

I have only tried this with 1.12.9 so far, but Eclipse 3.1 seems to work
without issue.  There were problems using the 3.0 series however.  The
readme/readme_eclipse.html file that comes with the 3.1 distribution
states that Eclipse was tested with CVS servers up to version 1.12.12.
See section 3.1.7 of that document for details.  The Eclipse CVS FAQ
linked from the readme seems quite out of date, so I wouldn't trust the
FAQ in this regard.

Hope this is helpful.
