AJ> Aren't CVS tags supposed to be sticky ?
AJ> I thought the following should work:

AJ> $ cd /usr
AJ> $ cvs -d [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs -q co -rOPENBSD_3_9 -P src
AJ> $ cd /usr/src && cvs -q up -Pd

AJ> From cvs(1) man page:
AJ> "The  tag  specification  is ``sticky'' when you use

AJ> Cheers...

I'm updating my -stable hosts with

cd /usr
export [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs
cvs -q up -rOPENBSD_3_9 -Pd src

and there's no problems...
When I wanna have local copy of -current sources at my -stable host,
I've copied them in some other place and updated from -stable to
-current with

cd /${MyCurrentSRCPlace}
export [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs
cvs -q up -Pd
