Global options
==============

   The available `cvs_options' (that are given to the left of
`cvs_command') are:

...
`-T TEMPDIR'
     Use TEMPDIR as the directory where temporary files are located.
     Overrides the setting of the `$TMPDIR' environment variable and
     any precompiled directory.  This parameter should be specified as
     an absolute pathname.  (When running client/server, `-T' affects
     only the local process; specifying `-T' for the client has no
     effect on the server and vice versa.)
...

e.g: cvs -T /some/temp/dir/path checkin <module>

Hi,

Thanks for the reply.  As I am not much aware of the Linux system setup,
could you please help with more details?  I am not able to use
./configure.  I am also not able find any similar config file in
xinetd.d folder too.  Where can I make the tmp-dir change?

Rgds,
Ahalya

Yes.

./configure --help
...
  --with-tmpdir           The temporary directory CVS should use as a
default
                          (default autoselects)
...

So, if you use

  ./configure --with-tmpdir=/path/to/some/other/tmp/directory

you should get what you want (provided the path makes sense on your
box).
