Info on CVS server best practices

[Johnson, Susan]

I am looking for information as to CVS server best practices.

By this I am suggesting:
 - CVS repository be installed on a dedicated server
rather than on a box contending with developers and
other applications for memory, swap space and disk
space
- CVS repository be on a server where users don't have
direct login access
- shadowing of CVS repository in the event of a calamity
for instant switchover to the other repository rather than
wait for the lengthy restore process

Does anybody have any other suggestions, plus comments on
the above?

Thanks.
