Thanks everyone for the feedback... I did have a lengthy explanation
of my solution, but IE decided that I didn't need it anymore, and
it's gone now. Regarding my CVS problem, I suspect an issue with the
shell, but can't say for sure at this time. In short:
Running CVS 1.11 on FreeBSD 4.1.1. Shell is tcsh.
Does not work:
loginfo: ^Reckoning (date; cat; (sleep 2; cd /www/perl_lib; cvs -q
update -d) &) >> $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/updatelog 2>&1
Works:
loginfo: ^Reckoning echo "Updating Reckoning Perl Module
Directory"; /www/bin/cvs_autoupdate.sh &
cvs_autoupdate.sh:
#!/bin/sh
# cvs_autoupdate.sh
# built to get around tcsh freakishness
CVSROOT=/usr/cvsroot
cat
sleep 2
cd /www/perl_lib
cvs -q update -d >> $CVSROOT/CVSROOT/updatelog 2>&1
I should also point out that neither solution works on SunOS 5.6,
running CVS 1.08 and ksh. I'll hit that harder on Monday.
