CVS install


I am trying to learn and install CVS for the first time, and am feeling a
bit overwhelmed.  I have a few basic questions...

I am using the FAQ that came with the latest Cygwin (I just upgraded to
latest a couple of days ago), and it mentions having to install RCS.  Is RCS
included in the Cygwin net install, or need acquiring separately?  (I did
not see anything in my Cygwin install, so I think I need to find it...)

When the FAQ says "see 1B.4", etc., where is that?

Is there a set of install directions for the CVS with Cygwin?  The FAQ
instructions talk about editing source and building, which is not what I
think I need to do with a distribution of binaries, but I do not know.  Even
the README mentions needing to use source...

Where & how do I get these files that the FAQ says to review:
"cvs/src/options.h" and "cvs/src/rcs.h" files, README, INSTALL and ChangeLog
files.
It is a pathetic question, but I have never done it!  I have only used
ClearCase and VSS in a networked environment, and a little CVS already
installed on a Unix system...

Thank you for any pointers.
