Sup is mirroring the timestamps of the directory files themselves it seems. Every time somebody does a 'cvs update' and something gets checked out, lock files are created in the /home/ncvs tree, changing the timestamps of the containing directories. Hence, each sup run causes the "Updating directory ..." etc. As to why there are 4000 entries, I dont know... :-/ Cheers, -Peter
