cvs - can't seem to get latest versions

I expected to get up-to-the-minute changes using the HEAD tag, but I'm still
having trouble. Can some give me the correct cvs command syntax (sorry, I know
this has been asked before but...)

If I grab a tree using any of these commands...
  $ cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.uk.horde.org:/cvs co horde
  $ cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.uk.horde.org:/cvs co -r HEAD horde
  $ cvs -d anoncvs@anoncvs.uk.horde.org:/cvs co -r RELENG_2 horde

then I don't see recently updated files (e.g. updated days or hours ago). Nor if
I then...
  $ cd horde; cvs update -Pd

(mine is not a production site, so is it ok to use the latest code? if not, then
which tree?)
