CVS watch command does not work!

Hi, I'm trying to enable the watch feature in CVS but it doesn't
seem to work.  Is there some option I need to enable to make this
work?

I tried using "cvs watch on filename.c" and also "cvs watch add
filename.c"  (filename.c is a valid file name) and I got the
following result both times:

Usage: cvs watch [on|off|add|remove] [-lR] [-a action]
[files...]
on/off: turn on/off read-only checkouts of files
add/remove: add or remove notification on actions
-l (on/off/add/remove): Local directory only, not recursive
-R (on/off/add/remove): Process directories recursively
-a (add/remove): Specify what actions, one of
    edit,unedit,commit,all,none
(Specify the --help global option for a list of other help
options)


I have the latest version of CVS and I have already configured
my CVSROOT/notify and CVSROOT/users file.    I can do the other usual
commands like checkout/update/rtab/log/status, etc. in my project.


Danny.
