James,
I do roughly the same thing with a few of my websites, with one
exception, I have a cron job that runs every hour to update the
sites. This is not instantaneous but it works well enough for my
sites. While you can adjust the timing to every five mins if you need
it that quickly (as there would not be any bandwidth usage just disk
IO) I found that this way results in way to much email confirming the
updates during the times that I am not developing (while I am at
work, or in bed for instance) and coming home to several hundred CVS
update messages tends to get annoying, let alone makes my inbox a lot
larger then I really want to deal with in a short amount of time.
Hope this helps.

I just started using cvs to manage a new web project had a usage
question I was wondering if anyone could help me with. Once I run
"cvs commit" in my local repos I would like the server to
automatically run a "cvs update" on a checkout which is located on
the same server as the cvs repos. I was wondering if this was
possible and how you might go out doing it. Thanks.
