Java Development Tools

When using the CVS Checkout Wizard the following problem happens in Linux Only:

For Step 2 of 4 enter a target path such as - /home/username/workspaces/workspace1/project1/src - where src is the only folder that does not exist.
For Step 4 of 4 check option - Check out into (not from) target
Click on Finish

Error:
"cvs[server aborted]: absolute pathname
`/home/username/workspaces/workspace1/project1/src'
illegal for server"

It seems that cvs doesn't like absolute pathnames. So if I try changing the target path to just 'project1/src' (a relative path) then CVS Checkout Wizard prepends a '/' and we end up with an invalid absolute path - '/project1/src' - and we get the error message again.

Please let me know if there is another way to checkout modules (using the 'Check out into (not from) target' option) other than checking out modules from the command line and then importing the module's files into JDeveloper.

Thank you.
