OK, I have read the other newsgroup threads and I do have the proper
version of CVS installed (installed on Unix machine). I am running
Eclipse 2.1.1. The problem that I am having is that it still complains
about the 'C' option. Here is the command line output:

JavaDragon: cvs update -C
(Locally modified file moved to .#file.1.2)
cvs server: invalid option -- C
Usage: cvs server [-APdflRp] [-k kopt] [-r rev|-D date] [-j rev]
[-I ign] [-W spec] [files...]
-A Reset any sticky tags/date/kopts.
-P Prune empty directories.
-d Build directories, like checkout does.
-f Force a head revision match if tag/date not found.
-l Local directory only, no recursion.
-R Process directories recursively.
-p Send updates to standard output (avoids stickiness).
-k kopt Use RCS kopt -k option on checkout.
-r rev Update using specified revision/tag (is sticky).
-D date Set date to update from (is sticky).
-j rev Merge in changes made between current revision and rev.
-I ign More files to ignore (! to reset).
-W spec Wrappers specification line.
(Specify the --help global option for a list of other help options)

JavaDragon: cvs update -Z
update: invalid option -- Z
Usage: CVS update [-APCdflRp] [-k kopt] [-r rev] [-D date] [-j rev]
[-I ign] [-W spec] [files...]
-A Reset any sticky tags/date/kopts.
-P Prune empty directories.
-C Overwrite locally modified files with clean repository
copies.
-d Build directories, like checkout does.
-f Force a head revision match if tag/date not found.
-l Local directory only, no recursion.
-R Process directories recursively.
-p Send updates to standard output (avoids stickiness).
-k kopt Use RCS kopt -k option on checkout. (is sticky)
-r rev Update using specified revision/tag (is sticky).
-D date Set date to update from (is sticky).
-j rev Merge in changes made between current revision and rev.
-I ign More files to ignore (! to reset).
-W spec Wrappers specification line.
(Specify the --help global option for a list of other help options)

JavaDragon: cvs -version

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.6 (client/server)

CVS may be copied only under the terms of the GNU General Public License,
a copy of which can be found with the CVS distribution kit.

Specify the --help option for further information about CVS

So, why does it say 'C' is a valid option when I use the invalid option of
'Z' but when I use 'C' it also says that it is invalid? Also, why does
the 'Usage' line say CVS server for the 'C' option but says CVS update for
the 'Z' option?

If anybody can help me it would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
