4/5     I'm in a big dilemma. When I do "cvs update -P" it works most of
        the time, but for some reason some files don't get updated AT ALL!
        I end up having to delete them manually and then do a cvs update
        to get the latest version. I'm so tempted to re-checkout the entire
        tree (which will cost me 4-5 hours to rebuild, etc). What's going on?
        \_ May have sticky tags.  Try doing cvs update -A
        \_ Have you checked the permissions on the troubled files and
           their parent directories?
           \_ Also make sure they don't have system immutable flag set
              or something similarly silly (man chflags)  -John
