Ok i probed this
%setenv CVSROOT [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ncvs
% cvs -R co -r RELENG_5 src
cvs server: warning: cannot open /home/ncvs/CVSROOT/val-tags read/write: Read-only file system
cvs server: Updating src
etc etc etc
...................................
WORKS perfectly with this server "now i have the src-tree from 5-stable :-)"
and i tested(paranoia :-) ) with RELENG_4 and works :-) ..the problem is with anoncvs.FreeBSD.org server
Thanks for your help

Hi again
The option -R does not work :-( i do this #setenv CVSROOT [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ncvs #cvs -R co -rRELENG_5 src and get this cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot write /home/ncvs/CVSROOT/val-tags: Permission denied and if i do #socksify cvs -R co src WORKS PERFECTLY
What can i do?

I vaguely remember a problem report about val-tags, so I checked the history of the CVS version we have in the tree. Dag-Erling Smorgrav has fixed a bug related to this in revision 1.2 of the file: src/contrib/cvs/src/tag.c.
This seems to be a server issue. If the server running at anoncvs.freebsd.org doesn't have the fix of DES, you can try a different server I guess. I'll let DES know about this and see if the fix has been backported to non-CURRENT FreeBSD versions.
