So far, so good. This output indicates that the import should have 
created the directory

/var/cvsroot/automation/v3.0

and a number of sub-directories, along with a number of files, in your 
repository (/var/cvsroot.) Try doing

find /var/cvsroot/automation

to ensure that they are there.

I'm not sure why you are doing this; it's not necessary for the import. 
The error looks like you're using the wrong connection method, but it 
shouldn't be the cause of the problem you're seeing.

I don't see any output from the 'cvs checkout' command. It should have 
either reported

cvs checkout: Updating automation

if you are accessing the correct repository, or

cvs checkout: cannot find module `automation' - ignored

if you are not. It shouldn't just output nothing.

So, are there *any* files checked out in your /home/admin/t directory? I 
would expect you would see /home/admin/t/automation there. Also, you 
might try this just to see what happens:

cvs -d /var/cvsroot checkout automation
