I took a chance on this one and deleted the old directory as well because it was called "rpc.ypxfrd" which could have interfered with people's builds as it has the same name as the executable. If anybody gets stuck on this by supping at the wrong time (ie: cvs panics saying that the repository has gone) you need to manually delete the extra directory and contents from your *checked out* copy. (just as a reminder, people really should be using "cvs update -d -P" or "cvs -q update -d -P" on your -current repository to make sure new directories are created and old empty directories are removed) Cheers, -Peter
