Where is my CVSROOT? I seem to need it for making release (of 4.0 on a
4.0 system, current as of Oct 24).

I checked the archives of this list. My question did pop up a few
times before in the same context.... but was not answered.

Make release starts OK, but stops complaining there is no CVSROOT.
There isn't on my system. I checked.

My cvsup-file reads:

	*default tag=.
	*default host=cvsup2.nl.freebsd.org
	*default prefix=/usr
	*default base=/usr/local/etc/cvsup
	*default release=cvs delete use-rel-suffix compress

	src-crypto
	src-eBones	
	src-secure
	src-all
	ports-all

A page in the handbook says the CVSROOT is what is after prefix. I
tried setting that. No go. I tried /usr/src. Same.  Can I create this
directory CVSROOT myself? And where? And what do I put into it? I do
have a directory /usr/src/CVS with files Entries, Repository, Root and
Tag.

Make world works OK, if that means something in this regard.

I am trying to make a release of current to install it on another box.
I can of course download a snapshot, but like to save on online time,
for which I pay per minute :-(

Thanks!
