Let's say you've mirrored the repository in /home/ncvs (like the default in cvs-supfile). On that machine, you mv /usr/src /usr/src.old. Then cd into /usr and: cvs -d/home/ncvs co -rYOUR_TAG_HERE src Edit /etc/make.conf: CVS_UPDATE= yes CVSROOT?= /home/ncvs Unset any SUP* variables to make the 'make update' target work correctly. Adjust the CVSROOT variable if you share the src mirror between machines. Have a look at the cvs(1) manpage for examples of that, allthough probably the best method is to have /home/ncvs available via NFS on the local network, because it doesn't require you to allow 'root' to ssh to other machines or setup a pserver. Remove /usr/src.old once your satisfied :) -- Melvyn ======================================================= FreeBSD sarevok.webteckies.org 5.2-BETA FreeBSD 5.2-BETA #1: Sat Nov 29 00:15:33 CET 2003 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/usr/obj/usr/src/sys/ SAREVOK_NOFW_DBG i386 =======================================================
