Hi, If you're going to do this, you might want to learn CVS a tiny bit better ;) You need a space between the -r and the actual tag, e.g. "-r TOMCAT_5_0_28" ;)
If you look at build.xml, there's a property called cvstag I added a while ago just for your use-case ;) Set it (either in build.xml or build.properties, preferably the latter) and it will be applied. This is obviously better than modifying the ant checkout/update tasks themselves. When you're grabbing from CVS without a tag, you're getting CVS HEAD, which right now is 5.5.4+. The Tomcat 5.0 stuff is on its own branch (TOMCAT_5_0, also usable as a tag).
