Dear Dave and all,

I was able to make a fresh checkout, but then I could not update my local CVS
tree using the "cvs update -C -P -d" command.

The error message is:
/disk1/cvsroot: no such repository

Looking at my local copy, the CVS folder contains the following entry:
:pserver:jmpoure@cvs.pgadmin.org:/disk1/cvsroot

It seems that the new server does not have a /disk1 entry. This is a typical
problem with CVS, folders and files cannot be renamed.

Why not take the opportunity of this migration to use a sophiticated system
like subversion. There are very good subversion Win32 clients around like
http://tortoisesvn.tigris.org

Cheers, Jean-Michel
