Hi all,

Another prob when I use CVSNT 2.5.03.2382 against the EVS cvs.cvsnt.org server.  This command does nothing:
cvs -d :pserver:cvs at cvs.cvsnt.org:/usr/local/cvs co -r "1.80.2.187" -d "temp" cvsnt/src/rcs.cpp

I get this output:
evs server: Updating .

But no file in the current directory and no directory "temp" is created.

If I do the same thing without the "-d temp" then it works:
C:\Documents and Settings\Arthur Barrett\Local Settings\Temp\testcvs>cvs -d :pse
rver:cvs at cvs.cvsnt.org:/usr/local/cvs co -r "1.80.2.187"  cvsnt/src/rcs.cpp
evs server: Updating cvsnt/src
U cvsnt/src/rcs.cpp

C:\Documents and Settings\Arthur Barrett\Local Settings\Temp\testcvs>dir cvsnt/s
rc
Parameter format not correct - "src".

C:\Documents and Settings\Arthur Barrett\Local Settings\Temp\testcvs>dir cvsnt\s

TortosieCVS uses this function in the revision graph diff....
