I want to mirror some directories from curly to larry with cvsup as an exercise and as a backup. The directories on curly I want to mirror are: /root, /seeds, and /etc. I have those working perfectly, now I want to add /usr/local/etc. I created the directory /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/usr/local/etc on curly. I created /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/usr/local/etc/etc.cvs and /usr/local/etc/cvsup/sup/usr/local/etc/releases. etc.cvs contains the lines: Upgrade usr/local/etc Rsymlink * Releases contains the line: Usr/local/etc list=3Detc.cvs prefix=3D/ When I start cvsupd -b /usr/local/etc/cvsup -C 1 -l /dev/stdout, I get: # Listen failed: Port in use I checked the handbook section on cvsup, may have missed the answer, but no joy. Can anyone point me to my error? Thanks, Charles Got a computer with idle CPU time? Join SETI@home and help make history! http://setiathome.ssl.berkeley.edu/
