RE: ": ambiguous redirect" error

[Roni Abusch]

In the document it is written as I put it. 
Anyway, I deleted my copy of the project, and checked it out again, and now
it is working, I do not know exactly why...

I think that should be:

^Test (date; cat; sleep 2; cd /home/rabusch/testing; cvs -q update -d ) >>
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/updatelog 2>&1 &

(untested though). Make sure that the default shell for this user is right
(sh-style, not csh).  I think the extra pair of braces is needed, so I left
them out.
