anyone know how to change cvs hostname in eclipse?

I know alot of java developers use eclipse. This question is directed
at them.
Sourceforge just rearranged things on their CVS system. They changed
the hostnames. So I go into the project properties window and try to
change the hostname on the CVS page but it wont let me change anything.
Anyone know how to do this?

Projects point to predefined repositories. Repositories are configured
in the CVS _Perspective_ in particular the CVS Repository View.

What I find curious is that there is no logical name for a repository
unless you check the "Use custom Label", but if you follow all the
prompts everything is updated in all referring projects when you redefine
a repositories properties and thus its name.

The reason that repositories are defined separately is that:
(1) source code control linking depends on the system used
thus there are plug-ins for other SCC systems perspectives.
and
(2) you can share one definition with multiple projects.

1. Open the CVS perspective.
2. Edit the cvs repository location your project uses.
3. Close Eclipse then reopen it.
4. Right click your project and select properties.
5. Click Change shareing.
6. Double click the location listed.
7. You are now Good to go.
Hope this helps. God bless you and HAVE FUN!
