+# The version of the remote shell program on some Linuxes, at least,
+# misuses GNU getopt in such a way that it plucks arguments to rsh
+# that look like command-line switches from anywhere in rsh's
+# arguments.  This is the Wrong Thing to do, and causes older versions
+# of CCVS to break.
+
+# In addition, if we live behind a firewall and have to construct a
+# "pipeline" of rshes through different machines in order to get to
+# the outside world, each rshd along the way undoes the hard work CCVS
+# does to put the command to be executed at the far end into a single
+# argument.  Sigh.
+
+# This script is a very minimal wrapper to rsh which makes sure that
+# the commands to be executed remotely are packed into a single
+# argument before we call exec().  It works on the idea of a "proxy
+# chain", which is a set of machines you go through to get to the CCVS
+# server machine.
+
+# Each host you go through before you reach the CCVS server machine
+# should have a copy of this script somewhere (preferably accessible
+# directly from your PATH envariable).  In addition, each host you go
+# through before you reach the firewall should have the CVS_PROXY_HOST
+# envariable set to the next machine in the chain, and CVS_PROXY_USER
+# set if necessary.
+
+# This really isn't as complex as it sounds.  Honest.
