I wouldn't call it a tool to "backup" a CVS archive. CVSup doesn't download meta-information and history information associated with files in a repository. Make sure you know what you're getting into before using it. Be aware as well that CVSup is written in Modula-3, which means it's not as straight-forward to compile. I'm not sure that a C client has been written. If I were you and I didn't know much about cvsup, I'd look at something like rsync or dirvish to backup my CVS repository. Phil.
