Ok, so I have created (stolen, some might say >;) some cvsup config files:

[root@brass]# cat standard.supfile 
*default host=cvsup4.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr/home/ncvs
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_3
*default delete use-rel-suffix

src-all
ports-all
docs-all

[root@brass]# cat secure.supfile 
*default host=cvsup.internat.FreeBSD.org
*default base=/usr
*default prefix=/usr/home/ncvs
*default release=cvs tag=RELENG_3
*default delete use-rel-suffix

src-crypto
src-eBones
src-secure

and executed cvsup for the first time with the, seemingly, standard params
I'll spare you the copious output):

[root@brass]# cvsup -g -L2 ./standard.supfile
[root@brass]# cvsup -g -L2 ./secure.supfile

and everything downloaded correctly, it seems.  Then I waited a couple of
days and ran the same commands again, here's the output (with much
snipped) this time:

[root@brass]# cvsup -g -L2 ./standard.supfile

I believe I can assume that 'cvsup' is doing it's job and downloading the
delta changes since last time I ran a 'cvsup'.

My question now, is what the heck do I do to update my system with all
this code :) now I have it?  I have tried:

[root@brass]# export CVSROOT=/usr/home/ncvs
[root@brass]# cvs co /src
cvs checkout: cannot find module `/src' - ignored

and

[root@brass]$ cvs co /usr/home/ncvs/CVSROOT/src
cvs checkout: cannot find module `/usr/home/ncvs/CVSROOT/src' - ignored

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
