That was for NetBSD 1.5; now that CVS is part of the base system, it's
easier to use that.

Here are similar instructions, but updated.

Get the source tree:

If you're using csh or tcsh, type this or put it in your .cshrc:
setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot

For sh or bash:
CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot; export CVSROOT

Then cd to where you have space (/usr, /home, whatever), log in, and fetch
the tree:
cvs login (password is anoncvs)
cvs checkout -P -rnetbsd-1-6 src

Later on, if you want to update your source tree, you can just do the cvs
login, then cd into the source tree (/usr/src or whatever), and type:
cvs update -P -d

Then you can either decide to rebuild the entire system, which would
likely take more than a week on an SE/30, or just ssh and related
programs. If you're doing the whole system, it'd be good to do a new
kernel first. There's another quick how-to for the kernel, if you need
that.

First, make sure these lines are in /etc/mk.conf
M68030=YES
COPTS+=-m68030
CFLAGS+=-m68030
COPTFLAGS+=-m68030

Then, rebuild sshd (should take several hours; maybe do it overnight):
cd usr.bin/ssh
make USETOOLS=no cleandir dependall
make USETOOLS=no install

Add -1 in there, too; ssh(2) is too slow for anything slower than a 68060
(it takes approximately 36 seconds on a 40 MHz 68040).

Edit /etc/ssh/sshd_config, and add this line:
PermitRootLogin yes

Well, one would think that another list would be more appropriate, but
it's less a problem of ssh and more a problem of the speed of our
machines. They're not going to get any faster...

Good luck,
