What do you see in the CVS/Entries file for the corresponding directory that is showing those 'greek' filenames? Yep, you're right. That's where the greek filename is coming from. That would be a matter of looking in bug tracking for your vendor (Redhat for version 7.1) to see if there were

If you are at version 2.4.20-28.7 of the kernel and glibc-2.2.4-33, then I doubt that there is an mmap bug around any longer. If you are not at that level, you may wish to look into getting some updates from ftp://updates.redhat.com/7.1/en/os/ while they are still available. We've not made any

As a suggestion to tackling this problem from a different direction, would you please run the check_cvs script over your repository. The script should be found in the scripts directory of the cvs distribution. I'm interested in the output. All suggestions greatfully accepted. I've already run

Certainly is. Note that the space overwritten in the struct is probably a string since the hex values spell out al/cvs_repository/tapest. Just to confirm that one - the module in question was in /usr/local/cvs_repository/tapestry ... ___ Info-cvs

[Red Hat 7.1, CVS 1.11.10] I've been trying to check in a *big* change over pserver and getting some nasty crashes from CVS (which unfortunately I did not take a note of - System exit 11?). Eventually I discovered that this particular client machine had an older version of CVS on it - 1.10.8

I think that someone added a file to CVS in a way that didn't involve typing the name of the file. People should really avoid naming files with characters that are not printable ASCII. Theoretically it shouldn't matter, but CVS is known to get indigestion when file names contain white space.

Does the somefile exist in the repository, either in a container directory or an Attic directory? I would expect something like this if someone rm's an RCS (,v) file directly from the repository. Do other commands, such as cvs status break with this file? --- Forwarded mail from [EMAIL

And you are sure that there are no 'odd' files present in your repository? (ls -alR) I think Redhat Linux allows UTF-8 characters in filenames... I'm afraid so. I did try an ls -b at the time; and wiping the sandbox and recopying from my original tar made the problem go away. Define 'large
