maintains. If you are running it from inside a script, then either you
have to
reduce the verbosity to 1 ie, the command will be cvsup -g -L 1 supfile

Greetings,
I am running 5.1-release. I created the file
/var/cron/tabs/root . It is owner root, group wheel.
permissions are -rw---
I have the following entry in the file root
