Lets try this again. My cvsupfile is copied from the examples directory. The non-comment lines are: host=cvsup1.freebsd.org base=/usr prefix=/home/ncvs *default host=cvsup1.freebsd.org *default base=/usr *default prefix=/home/ncvs *default release=cvs *default delete use-rel-suffix *default compress *default tag=RELENG_3_4_0_RELEASE src-all cvs-crypto ports-all doc-all And I invoke cvsup as root like this: cvsup -g -L2 cvsupfile in the directory (/root) with the cvsupfile. I'm still getting the error message: Release not specified for collection "host=cvsup1.freebsd.org" I (think I)really want to track the 3.4 release branch. I've commented out the line "*default tag=RELENG_3_4_0_RELEASE" with no effect. It is reading my cvsupfile because I've tried cvsup2.freebsd.org as well and I get the same message from a different server. What am I tripping over/stepping on?
