OH. it does skip the directory, that sounds fine to me.

(I copy&pasted your Command) I wonder what it seeks in CVS/Entries, thats a File which exists on Clientside only, it stores which Files you already have and in which version. A checkout should actually generate that file, while an update should update it. Serverside there is only CVSROOT/ which is important for the Server. > Rico, are you using CVS 1.11.4 ? And what version were you > using before you migrated the server ? My Clients are 1.11.2-debian and 1.11.1p1 (OBSD Ports Collection) The Server is 1.11.2-debian. Clients are Debian Sid and OBSD 3.1-current, Server is Debian Testing.
