Greetings,

I tried (half-heartedly) a week or so ago to checkout some subset of 
the CVS repository, rooted at LDP/howto/docbook and encountered a 
hanging CVS client. I tried again this evening and despite several 
attempts, each time I try to checkout the files (or update) in this 
fashion

  $ cd $MY_ROOT/LDP/howto/docbook && cvs update

my cvs client eventually hangs in a read waiting for something to 
come back from the other side.  Last visible output is listed below:

  [ .... ]
  cvs server: Updating OLSR-IPv6-HOWTO
  cvs server: Updating OLSR-IPv6-HOWTO/images
  cvs server: Updating PHP-Nuke-HOWTO
  cvs server: Updating PHP-Nuke-HOWTO/images

Ultimately, at the moment, I'm only interested in a single directory 
which I checked out singly by specifying the full path.  This 
seemed, however rather irksome--since it might have an effect on 
others who are trying to mirror CVS directly.  I'd be happy to 
provide any useful information to a CVS admin.  (Are you still there 
Serguisz?)

      SuSE-10.0
      cvs-1.12.12-4
