Ok, I give up. I just deleted my local CVS and started again:
> rm -rf WebPage/*
> cd WebPag
>
cvs -d:pserver:address@hidden:/web/gslip co .> cp (various data into subfolders)> cvs login> cvs add index.html
cvs [server aborted]: "add" requires write access to the repositorySo I can't get access to my directory to do an add. This sort of makes sense because [gslip] Index of /gslip has no CVS information in it (CVS/ or CVSROOT). Since the instructions in http://web.cvs.savannah.gnu.org/viewvc/gslip/?root=gslip&sortdir=down specifically say that cvs is to be used this provides some uncertainty as to my real worth. It seems I don't understand how cvs can be required and not available.
This effort started as a result of the Gnu maintainer manual http://www.gnu.org/prep/maintain/html_node/Hosting-for-Web-Pages.html#Hosting-for-Web-Pages. It clearly and specifically does not provide a clue as to where the web page savannah archive might be, as I bitterly decry any attempt for me to be useful.
I've tried to do my homework and not ask foolish questions, foolish though those questions might be. But the gnu system is impenetrable. I am attaching the entire web page project in case there is some clue in it that can prove helpful. To untar do tar xvj WebPage.tar.gz or tar xfa WebPage.tar.gz.
