The other think this points out, at least to me, is that I need to look at the cvsup logs. It was always one of these processes I just assumed worked. It did for 1.5 years without any problems that I know of. I've always started it from a telnet session from a different computer. Even if I am on the console on the machine I'm cvsup'ing I don't run it using the gui version. At any rate, I spent around 10-15 minutes scanning through the cvsup log before I gave up and reran cvsup. The error messages for the two linked files popped up on the screen in about 5 minutes. This time everything associated with the cvsup fit on to one 25 line screen. I cut and pasted the path to a cd, unlinked them, re-cvsuped, and started looking at this list to see what happened.
