You can execute:
ln -s path-to-actual-CVS-module
This will create a symbolic link in a UNIX system. You're out of luck if
your CVS is on Windows. In your cvsroot, create a new directory (i.e.
module) and place your parent POM in there. Then symlink all of your
modules in that directory. When you want to checkout the project, it will
follow the symlinks and checkout everything in the proper location.

Re: Simple CVS question: How to add a file to the toplevel cvsroot
Thanks for responding to my email. I am more inclined to the second
option.. Can you tell me how to create these symbollic links, what command
should I use to acheive this or Are there any cvs commands to create
links...
- Keep the structure and create a new module that contains a parent
POM
and a list of symbolic links
to your actual CVS modules
Thanks
