Maybe it is worth saying on the page that cvs repository has to be init'ed with 'cvs -d /cvs init' before being usable for checkouts... Certainly not. -- Christian naddy Weisgerber [EMAIL PROTECTED]

You don't get CVSROOT if you only fetch openbsd-ports. Just add
openbsd-cvsroot as an additional collection:
config {
hostname mirror.osn.de
collection {
name openbsd-ports
release rcs
prefix /cvs
}
collection {
name openbsd-cvsroot
release rcs
prefix /cvs
}
}

CVSync web page
hi, i've just set up a little CVSync mirror, and following cvsync.html, i stumble on the cvs [checkout aborted]: /cvs/CVSROOT: No such file or directory issue when trying to checkout from my fresh mirror. Maybe it is worth saying on the page that cvs repository has to be init'ed with 'cvs -d /cvs init' before being usable for checkouts... or maybe i'm wrong somewhere. Landry
