Hi All,

I am trying to create a repository on Solaris 10 using cvs from the
companion CD. It installed fine ...

These are the instructions that i am going on:

To create a new project in the repository, you need to first create an
empty directory, change into it, and then cvs import it:

$ mkdir foo
$ cd foo
$ cvs import -m. foo foo initial
No conflicts created by this import

When I attempt it I get this:

$ cvs import -m. foo foo initial
cvs [import aborted] : attempt to import the repository

Anyone have any thoughts?

Did you "cvs init"? You will also need to specify (either with CVSROOT
or with -d) where your repository is located.
