You may need to build <em>clean</em> before each test to avoid getting
old results in the report, or simply delete the
<tt>./testsuite/output/reports</tt> directory before running the tests.

+<h2>I can not log into cvs, why?</h2>
+
+<p>If you are using anonymous CVS access you might have forgotten to
+ log in, try this:
+
+<pre class="command">
+cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/jboss login
+</pre>
+
+<p>There is no password, so just press enter (ie. leave it blank).
+
+<p>For more information see the JBoss CVS page at
+ <a href="http://sourceforge.net/cvs/?group_id=22866";>Source Forge</a>.

+<h2>What are the nessicary CVS modules to build JBoss?</h2>
+
+<p>All you need to build the latest development version of JBoss is
+ the <tt>jboss-all</tt> module.
+
+<p>Do not bother with the details of individual modules... it is just
+ not worth the trouble. Grab <tt>jboss-all</tt> and get on with your life.
+
+<p>For more information look <a href="/developers/cvs.jsp">here</a>.

+
+<h2>I can not find the <tt>jboss-all</tt> module anywhere... why does this
work?</h2>
+
+<p>The <tt>jboss-all</tt> module (and others) are created by definitions in
+ CVSROOT/modules. Have a look at the latest version
+ <a
href="http://cvs.sourceforge.net/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/~checkout~/jboss/CVSROOT/modules?rev=HEAD";>here</a>.
+
+<p>The exact details of this file, how it works are beyond the scope of this
+ simple FAQ... rather beyond my patience to write at the moment.

+
+<!-- ==================================================================== -->
+
+<h2>Why doesn't <tt>cvs update</tt> work?</h2>
+
+<p>When the structure of a module created from CVSROOT/modules changes,
+ <tt>cvs update</tt> will not fully update the module. This is due
+ to a difficency in CVS, where update does not consult the CVSROOT/modules
+ file for changes. It will only use the information it all ready has
+ in local CVS directories.
+
+<p>For this reason, when the structure of module changes, you will need to
+ either re-checkout the module, or update the structure by hand.
+
+<p>If there were no structure changes, but update still does not get all of
+ the changes, you might need to use to <tt>-d</tt> switch, to force
+ update to create new directories:
+
+<pre class="command">
+cvs update -d
+</pre>
