X-BeenThere: freebsd-questions@freebsd.org X-Mailman-Version: 2.1.1 Precedence: list List-Id: User questions List-Unsubscribe: , List-Archive: List-Post: List-Help: List-Subscribe: , X-List-Received-Date: Thu, 27 Jan 2005 02:27:03 -0000 Good day! I've been editing our mrtg configuration files using the Revision Control System. To edit the file, I've always check it out first and then check it back in with a '-u' option to leave a copy of the config file so that the mrtg can always find the file when it needs it.Recently, I've decided to change the flag of the RCS file(the one with the same name as the config file but ends with a ",v" found inside the RCS folder I've created to "uunlnk" for the purpose of avoiding accidental deletion and thus keeping a copy always available in case I have accidentally deleted the config file that is being extracted from it. #cd RCS #ls -lo * #-r--r--r-- 1 root wheel uunlnk 7004 Jan 27 10:06 vis-inanna.conf,v Questions: 1. When I "co -l" the config file, I got a warning saying: co: RCS/vis-inanna.conf,v: Operation not permitted co: saved in RCS/,vis-inanna.conf, Why??? I mean, on a normal check out operations, 'co -l' always leave the RCS file (vis-inanna.conf,v) inside the RCS folder. How come check out won't work when uunlnk just says "never delete the file" I didn't delete the file. I just extracted a file (just a copy)from vis-inanna.conf,v which happens to be the config file I'm after, vis-inanna.conf After that warning, another RCS file was created with the same flag uunlnk inside the RCS folder but starts with "," So now when I: #ls RCS ,vis-inanna.conf, vis-inanna.conf,v Any idea why is this happening?
