Hi,

I am trying to write a generic script that we will be able run from any host
on our network, including possibly the server hosting the cvs pserver and I
am running into a problem.

When I run the following command on a client computer it works as expected:

cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/local/cvsroot checkout -d . test


However, when I run it on the box that is actually hosting the cvs pserver,
I get this:

cvs server: existing repository /usr/local/cvsroot does not match
/usr/local/cvsroot/test
cvs server: ignoring module test


If I change the '.' to a full path I get this:

cvs [server aborted]: absolute pathname `/root/cctest/test_MAIN' illegal for
server


If I run it without the -d option to the checkout command it works, but of
course I get a 'test' subdirectory that I dont want.

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Craig
