Over on my old windoze xp box, I've got a program called
cvsnt. I wanted to see if I could update the source dir
over there by mounting the dir here locally, then running
cvsup to put everything there, before unmounting it. Then,
use cvsnt for a local network source repository server.
Cvsup does fine on the remotely mounted nfs dir until I
get to this:

Updater failed: Cannot install "/home/mydir/cvsdir/src/contrib/
libreadline/#cvs.cvsup-91834.13672" to
"/home/mydir/cvsdir/src/contrib/libreadline/ChangeLog,v":
Permission denied

Command to mount the remote windows directory:
mount -w -t nfs remotebox:cvsdir /home/mydir/cvsdir

I've done everything with the local & remote dirs except put
them on eBay. :-) Chmoded them to 777 & still get the same
message. Wouldn't doubt if it's something very simple I'm
just overlooking. I was wondering if maybe it has something
to do with my cvsup usage & not the dir/file permissions.
Here's the supfile being used:

#
*default host=cvsup17.us.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/home/mydir/cvsdir
*default prefix=/home/mydir/cvsdir
*default release=cvs
*default delete use-rel-suffix
*default compress
src-all
ports-all tag=.
doc-all tag=.
www
cvsroot-all
#

As can be seen above, the delete is pretty standard & what
I use everywhere else locally:

*default delete use-rel-suffix

Thanks for any help, advice, new hair to replace what I've
pulled out, etc.
