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.
