You either need to run it in a directory that contains a CVS/Root file or, like the above message says, you need to specify a default CVSROOT on the command line using the -d global option or you need to set the $CVSROOT environment variable. Update will look at the CVS/Root file in each directory being updated to get the correct CVSROOT for that directory, but it still needs a default setting as well. -Larry Jones I'm getting disillusioned with these New Years. -- Calvin
