If you don't want to hassle with the modula-3 libs, > use the one in ftp://hub.freebsd.org/pub/CVSup/cvsup-bin-14.1.1.tar.gz that that's right. the cvsup is still superrior for the task, far more better than sup ever could be... and hard to set up? either the said binary, or cd /usr/ports/net/cvsup make all install and there you go after a while. what comes to the cvsupfile, well, it can not be that hard. once you've been assimilated to cvsup you dont want to drop it. mickey
