All I can say is that the problem appears to be related to the client side: 1. This behavior does not occur with WinCVS 1.3.6.1, but it does with 1.3.7.1 and 1.3.8.1 2. It happens whether the server is CVSNT or standard CVS I'll look for 1.3.8.2 later. And I just joined the cvsgui group, so I'll check there.

I am using WinCVS 1.3.8.1 and a patched version of cvsnt build 57d right now, and it is working fine. The key thing to update is the ext_protocol.dll file. The bug existed in CVSNT prior to build 57d.
