It can efficiently and accurately mirror all types of files, including sources, binaries, hard links, symbolic links, and even device nodes. CVSup's streaming communication protocol and multithreaded architecture make it most likely the fastest mirroring tool in existence today. In addition to being a great general-purpose mirroring tool, CVSup includes special features and optimizations specifically tailored to CVS repositories. This port of CVSup omits the GUI and does not require X11. For a version that includes the GUI, use the "net/cvsup" port. WWW: http://www.cvsup.org/ How about the command "which > cvsup"? > which cvsup /usr/local/bin/cvsup If you get output from both of these commands you already have > cvsup and can go about following the links I sent earlier to get the > source and upgrade your system. Ok, I suppose I already have it then. Horray! I'll get on with it. Thanks a= lot. > > HTH, > Micah > -- /Linnea
