Hello,

I want to make use of a local cvsup-server, that should feed our
various (-current and -stable) machines.

What should I say, it doesn't work out of the box for me. Since
I don't know if it should, I'm begging for a little help or a 
pointer to documentation.

I was running the client side of cvsup for quite some time now, 
without any problems (checkout-mode).

First I switched one of the cvsup-client-machines to fetching the
whole cvs-repository. (no problem)
Then I installed the cvsupd-binary-package with the 'out-of-the-box'-
configuration. 
Whenever I point a cvsup-client to this cvsupd, the cvsupd just 
yells about 'unknown collections'. (e.g. as follows)

    > Looking up address of distler.tse-online.de
    > Connecting to distler.tse-online.de
    > Connected to distler.tse-online.de
    > Server software version: REL_15_2
    > Negotiating file attribute support
    > Exchanging collection information
    > Server message: Unknown collection "src-all"
    > Server message: Unknown collection "doc-all"
    > Server message: Unknown collection "cvs-crypto"
    > Establishing active-mode data connection
    > Running
    > Skipping collection src-all/cvs
    > Skipping collection doc-all/cvs
    > Skipping collection cvs-crypto/cvs
    > Shutting down connection to server
    > Finished successfully

The documentation (FreeBSD Handbook and man-pages) for the client-side is
sufficient, but certainly I'm not able to get a grip on the 
cvsupd-configuration.

Thanks in advance,
   Andreas
