Hello all,

I am trying to get cvsweb running on FreeBSD and getting this error:

Error: $cvstreedefault points to a repository (local) not defined in
%CVSROOT (edit your configuration file /etc/cvsweb.conf)

And I am certain my conf file is correct (attached below), I have used
cvsweb on Debian linux and never had this issue.  I can't find anything
that should be preventing this from working, any help would be greatly
appreciated.  The path to the cvsroot is correct as listed, I am
completely confounded, as this has never been an issue, after two days of
banging my head I am groveling for help. ;)

Jason
