Unless you want to make sure nobody tries to check anything in or out while you're working, in which case you could either shut down the server, or create empty CVSROOT/readers and CVSROOT/writers files. The only state that will be affected is the state in the user's CVS/Repository file. That's why the users must delete their local copies and check them out afresh after the move is complete. If they don't, then CVS will look in the CVS/Repository file, and see the original project/a directory - which doesn't exist any more. -- Jim Hyslop Senior Software Designer Leitch Technology International Inc.
