I think it will time out and exit the process eventually, so you would have to restart the cvsup. You could script that, but be careful as noted below. > or i have to download it one time? No, it is mostly a linear process. Whatever is updated by the time you disconnect will still be updated. Then when you restart the cvsup, you wont have to redo that part. There is some overhead searching through parts that don't need to be updated, so don't do it every 5minutes, but its not huge overhead. Tim
