Subject:   cvsup SetAttrs, preserve, and umask

I'm using cvsup from a personal repository on my cvsup server. For 
security reasons, certain files and directories need have specific 
permissions and groups.  I can't get the repository to "take" these 
settings.  For example, I've chmod 640 and chgrp www a particular 
directory in my working copy.  How can I get those settings into the 
repository and then onto the destination boxes via cvsup?

I did try setting the permissions on the remote box.  But then the next 
cvsup just did a bunch of SetAttrs and wiped the slate clean.  I've seen 
the preserve and umask options, but can't figure out the starting point.

Clues please.
