Re: Re:Project being built - forever !?

Unfortunately, I do not know what the solution was. I was debugging this 
problem for a customer using AnthillPro and I think they solved it by 
installing a newer version of the client (I might have been too hasty in 
blaming this problem on the cvs server when the client could be at fault 
here). What I know is that the client did the checkout (according to the logs 
it was getting all the files) but the process never returned.  I don't think 
it was a problem with ssh since the client was connecting and pulling source 
just fine, it was at the end that something was messing up.
If you indeed find out that you have the same problem, I would suggest that 
you try the same command from another machine in order to confirm whether 
this is a client or server problem.
Sorry that I could not be of more help here!
