Thanks for the pointer though. I missed the start of this thread, but re-directing the remote CVS temp directory would probably help: CVS_SERVER="cvs -T /var/tmp" cvs .... This helps also with remote read-only repository because cvs does not push the -R flag to the remote CVS: CVS_SERVER="cvs -R" cvs ... harti -- harti brandt, http://www.fokus.fraunhofer.de/research/cc/cats/employees/hartmut.brandt/private brandt@fokus.fraunhofer.de, harti@freebsd.org
