I found a problem with my CVS setup. It seemed to work initially. I was able to check files out, modify them and check them back in. The problem comes when I try to revert to what is in the repository or do a comparison with what is in the repository. Below is the error message I get when I tell Eclipse to ignore the changes to my Properties file and revert to the version in the repository. Where is the -C coming from? I could find settings for some of the other settings, such as pruning. I'm also not sure why it is adding -r "BASE" since I checked it out from the head. There are no branches or tags created yet.

cvs update -r "BASE" -C -l -d -P "/MDSpas/Resources/Properties"
    cvs server: invalid option -- C
    Usage: cvs server [-APdflRp] [-k kopt] [-r rev|-D date] [-j rev]
        [-I ign] [-W spec] [files...]
        -A      Reset any sticky tags/date/kopts.
        -P      Prune empty directories.
        -d      Build directories, like checkout does.
        -f      Force a head revision match if tag/date not found.
        -l      Local directory only, no recursion.
        -R      Process directories recursively.
        -p      Send updates to standard output (avoids stickiness).
        -k kopt Use RCS kopt -k option on checkout.
        -r rev  Update using specified revision/tag (is sticky).
        -D date Set date to update from (is sticky).
        -j rev  Merge in changes made between current revision and rev.
        -I ign  More files to ignore (! to reset).
        -W spec Wrappers specification line.
    (Specify the --help global option for a list of other help options)
