Strange. Next time it happens, could you please send me the following info:
1. The error message from cvsup.
2. The output from "ls -alRF" on the directory containing the offending
file (in this case, "/usr/sup/src-base").
3. The user-ID and group-ID under which you run cvsup (so I can check
for permission problems).
4. The date & time when you started the run (so I can check the server
logs).
5. Your mother's maiden name. (Just kidding.)
If it's stopped happening, please let me know that, too.
Also, if anybody else is seeing this problem, please tell me.
Thanks,
John
