I'm using CVS : - with 1.11.5 (only got the executable) it is unable to "see" the modules - with 1.12.13 it has problems in finding the repository directory (with or without :local:) [If I use CVSNT everything works fine, but it is much slower that 1.11.5] _______________________________________________ Bug-cvs mailing list [email protected] http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-cvs
