It looks like cvsup doesn't like a line in your cvs-mirror's checkouts.cvs;. file. It is a text file. You can edit it and remove the line and try to update your mirror. There have been times when people have deleted their checkouts file. The next mirror update goes pretty slow but works. I was trying to update my mirror with a -s option on cvsup but it didn't save anytime, so I removed the option. Kent -- Kent Stewart Richland, WA http://users.owt.com/kstewart/index.html
