[cvsnt] Re: Update fails: cannot create_adm_p

>From my side, bandwidth is not a problem, because updating the other, bigger 
repositories succeeds. ok, it needs some time, because it is a fritz card

not at the server. The question is what problem at the client side can show
such an error message ?
