[ale] relocating cvs

[Jason Vinson]

Just tried it without copying the CVSROOT over.  Same results:

[jvinson]:[spg] cvs update
/opt/cvs: no such repository

the Repository and Root both are correct as well.  Any other ideas?

Yes, it's possible.

You said that you can checkout a module, but cannot commit or update
correct?  Check the contents of a CVS directory of a checked-out module.
Are the Root and Repository correct?

When you tarred up the repository, did you include the CVSROOT directory
(you shouldn't)?
