>

> CVS Backup – Step-by-step guide of how to backup a CVS repository;

>

> CVS Security – Step-by-step guide on how to prevent the deletion of 

> files from CVS; How to make files read-only;

>

> CVS Best Practices – Best practices for merging branches into the 

> trunk (merge conflicts); It would be nice to know how other companies 

> are maintaining CVS projects;

>

> I already have O'Reilly's Essential CVS book. If you know of any other 

> CVS resources, such as website links, books, etc. that would help, 

> would you please reply back via email. Thank you in advance for your help.
