[cvsnt] /cvs/Root files: Dumb user

[Aaron Kynaston]

CVS attaches all of the local 'sandboxes' to itself, throught he use of
those files, as you've seen here.

The best rule I've found, is to let CVS be the boss - if something gets
screwy, attempt to check everything in, check out a new copy and then
work from there.  If you weren't able to commit everything, I move over
all of my old sandbox files (minus the CVS directories) ontop of the new
location, and I'm all fixed up!

OK, so we recently put our company behind a firewall, which changed our

cvs (pserver) server's ip.  Unfortunately, the Root file had the 
server's name resolved to the ip, so it was no longer valid.  No 
combination of cvs login / logout fixed it for me, so I ended up 
deleting all of them so that I could continue working.  Now, things are

screwed up because I still don't have the root files.  I didn't know
how 
to get them back the right way, so now I'm copying a corrected Root
file 
around my tree.  This just seems wrong, but I don't know the right
way...
