Hello, I had trouble understanding this as well. However, it is quite easy, once explained. First, look into the cvsup *-supfile, to see what you have for a base directory. This by default is set to /usr second, go to /usr and in this directory, you should see a directory called 'sup'. In this directory you will find for instance ports-all, doc-all, src-all, etc... For you, I will use the doc-all directory. cd /usr/sup/doc-all create a file called 'refuse' and add these lines to it. I like to put them line by line though not required. doc/es doc/ru once you have done this, your set. Next time you run cvsup, it will effectively ignore this and any subdirectories under /usr/doc/es and /usr/doc/ru. If I have incorrectly spoken, please correct me. later Michael Mercer mmercer@ipass.net Eric Jacoboni wrote: > > Hi, > > I've looked in the handbook, the Complete FBSD without success...
