As you've specified the same things on the three lines below, you can just delete them. > *default host=cvsup1.freebsd.org > *default base=/usr > *default prefix=/home/ncvs > I (think I)really want to track the 3.4 release branch. 3.4-RELEASE isn't a branch, it's a tag. There's not much point cvsupping it, as it will never change. (Well, it *could*, but I don't know why, and it's very unlikely I think.) Do you not really want 3.4-STABLE? That would be ``*default tag=RELENG_3''. -- Ben Smithurst / ben@scientia.demon.co.uk / PGP: 0x99392F7D To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
