I am trying to create a source tree from my repository (eventually).

However, when I give the command "$ cvs log Makefile"
(in /usr/home/ncvs/src with CVSROOT set to /home/ncvs)
I get the response:

cvs log: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs log: nothing known about Makefile

According to the man page for cvs, "cvs log" is the same as
"rlog", so I tried "$ rlog Makefile", and recieved the following
(expected) output:

RCS file: Makefile,v
Working file: Makefile
head: 1.221
branch:
locks: strict
access list:
symbolic names:
        RELENG_2_2_8_RELEASE: 1.109.2.35
        RELENG_3_0_0_RELEASE: 1.220
        RELENG_2_2_7_RELEASE: 1.109.2.33
                .
                .
                .

Could someone please tell me what I'm doing wrong with cvs.

Thanks,

        Michael
