Hi, I just had a lot of trouble accomplishing an import today..
the repository I wanted to checkin was a lot larger than my /tmp 
filesystem, and I couldn't determine how to change the target temporary 
storage space directory.
Documentation on www.cvshome.org indicated that it could be done by having 
'-T /newdirectory' in the /etc/inetd.conf cvs line.
No luck, but also no further errors.
I also attempted adding this option to the import line.  No luck, also no 
further errors.
I eventually discovered that I could accomplish my goal by setting 
CVS_SERVER='cvs -T /newdirectory' to indicate how the remote server was to 
store the temporary directory..
But there was no documentation anywhere that I tried to find it, that led 
me to this conclusion.  Just a wild attempt to try to fix the problem I was 
having.
So I'm wondering: if documentation exists that would have led me to this 
conclusion earlier, where could I have found it, and how could I have known 
to look there?
And: is this the standard way to solve this problem?  Because the 
documentation that I did find indicated a method that just didn't work at 
all, for me.

Thanks!
