[rancid] Rancid CVS Issue

I've already got this in rancid.conf

# list of rancid groups
LIST_OF_GROUPS="networking"

And when I run /usr/local/rancid/bin/rancid-cvs I get no output.

[rancid at router ~]$ /usr/local/rancid/bin/rancid-cvs
[rancid at router ~]$

[rancid at router ~]$ echo $BASEDIR

[rancid at router ~]$ pwd
/usr/local/rancid
[rancid at router ~]$ ls -l
total 60
drwxr-xr-x 2 rancid netadm  4096 Mar  6 17:26 bin
drwxr-xr-x 2 rancid netadm  4096 Mar  7 09:04 etc
-rw-r--r-- 1 rancid netadm 12738 Mar  6 17:22 README
drwxr-xr-x 4 rancid netadm  4096 Mar  6 17:13 share
drwxr-xr-x 3 rancid netadm  4096 Oct 26 21:51 tar
drwxr-xr-x 5 rancid netadm  4096 Mar  6 17:21 var

I believe there should be a CVS directory in there. I did install CVS after
rancid so I guess that may have caused the issue. Any ideas?

Thanks,
Andy
