I'm thinking that the > server would do a CVSUP each night (or whenever). You can setup a CVS repository mirror on your server and then install a cvsup server on it and share the collection. But be aware that this method needs quite a bit of diskspace and also a fast disk and large memmory for the cvsup process to be fast. But the advantage is that you will have the complete repository on your server so after syncing, you will be able to use it totally offline. Hope this help! P.S.
