Hello guys,

I'm writing to see if anyone has run into this issue before or if you have
a suggestion about other tools that would allow via web interface to browse
the CVS repository for rancid. Thanks for any input or suggestions you can
provide.

Thus far i'm trying to get CVSWeb working with rancid 3.2 but i'm running
into the following error. I'm using the article linked below as a guide
(Step 7).
