For example, say you your nightly builds create a tag that looks like:
DAILY_2002_07_26_16_55_08

And that is the most stable one, then you would do something like:

cvs rtag -b -r DAILY_2002_07_26_16_55_08 REL_2_1_BRANCH

Personally, I'd do something like:

cvs rtag -r DAILY_2002_07_26_16_55_08 REL_2_1_BP
cvs rtag -b -r REL_2_1_BP REL_2_1

That way I can just always reference two similarly named branches.
