I'm running -CURRENT so I get ctm-src-cur via email... not a problem. However I now have some machines that I want to maintain at -STABLE along with a couple of -CURRENT machines. So I'd like to set up a CVSup server within the firewall. What I have done is: - subscribed to ctm-cvs-cur fine (I'm getting the deltas). - populated my CVS tree at /home/ncvs from the deltas Now I need to know how I can checkout -CURRENT or -STABLE from this tree. What I think I know: - I think I dont need a CVSup server if I want to populate /usr/src on the machine that has the CVS tree. What I have tried: setenv CVSROOT /home/ncvs cd /usr/src # /usr/src contains -CURRENT tree from ctm-src-cur # delta src-cur.4200xEmpty.gz make update This last command does nothing! Can someone tell me: - How to checkout a -CURRENT or -STABLE tree from my CVS repositry Eventually I want to do the above for other machines so I imagine I will have to run a CVSup server. I have built and installed the CVSup server but I'm not sure what I should make it serve ? Should it serve /home/ncvs ?? Or do I have to checkout -CURRENT and -STABLE on the server and serve them up somehow. I dont know anything about CVS! -- Matthew Thyer Phone: +61 8 8259 7249 Corporate Information Systems Fax: +61 8 8259 5537 Defence Science and Technology Organisation, Salisbury PO Box 1500 Salisbury South Australia 5108 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
