find . -name "\#cvs.[rw]fl*" -print -exec rm -rf {}\' The above will do the trick but it's brute force. But hey, it works. You could first "exec ll" rather than "exec rm -rf" to see what will be deleted. Run it from the top of the repository and ALL locks in the repository will go away (this might not be what you want). It will remove locks that look like: #cvs.wfl.pilot.12345 #cvs.rfl #cvs.wfl You may also have lock directories that look like this: #cvs.lock/ You'll need to modify the above find if you have these lock directories.
