Hi Mark, the value should be a directory name. I have updated the documentation for the override directory and have added an error message to make that more clear. Let me know if that clears things up.

Why does that string not match? Using the module attribute of the cvs-update task. Assembly: NAnt.SourceControlTasks (0.85.1766.0) This is what I've got: In the build.properties file: <property name="cvs.backup.dir" value="${project.dir}\CvsSrcBackUp"/> <property name="cvs.user" value="dudename"/> <property name="cvs.dir" value="/home/cvs"/> <property name="cvs.host" value="codeplace.com"/> <property name="cvs.root" value=":ext:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:${cvs.dir}"/> <property name="cvs.module" value="octl-src\DotNetFramework"/> <property name="cvs.passfile" value="C:\Documents and Settings\dudename\.ssh\id_rsa"/> In the build file: <cvs-update destination="${project.dir}" cvsroot="${cvs.root}" module="${cvs.module}" verbose="true" cvsrsh="ssh" builddirs="true" quiet="true" passfile="${cvs.passfile}" usesharpcvslib="false" > </cvs-update> This might have something to do with the overridedir attribute. So... I see in the help example: overridedir="replacement_for_module_directory_name" Using my above example, what goes in "replacement_for_module_directory_name" Thanks, MArk B. ------------------------------------------------------- SF email is sponsored by - The IT Product Guide Read honest & candid reviews on hundreds of IT Products from real users.
