Hello, I am trying to update my source using CVS, as CVSup is not an option in my current environment. I am running FreeBSD 4.10. Below are the commands that I am entering in order to perform the update, but for some reason, I am getting the following error when attempting to update my source: lx1005# pwd /usr/src lx1005# setenv CVSROOT anoncvs@anoncvs.FreeBSD.org:/home/ncvs lx1005# cvs co -rRELENG_4_10 src cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot write /home/ncvs/CVSROOT/val-tags: Permission denied lx1005# whoami root These commands show that I am in the /usr/src directory (which is where I should be), and that I am the root user. I was informed by another user that this was a server error, but I can't seem to get around it no matter which anoncvs server I use. Please advise. Thanks Computers are like Air Conditioners: They stop working properly if you open Windows. --------------------------------- Post your free ad now! Yahoo! Canada Personals
