Hello,

i have a cvsnt 1.11.1.3 (57h) running on a w2k server for weeks without any 
problem. Now i encountered suddenly two problems:
1) i added some java class files as binary successfully, set to edit, 
recompiled and performed a commit. i didn't get any error, but the commit 
wasn't done. The old versions were still up-to-date. not until i did a 
forced commit, the files were put in cvs.
2) i did an edit on a directory, changed one file inside it (java files) and 
committed it successfully, Then i tried to unedit the other files, but 
nothing happened (no error...). As i could see, i still was editor of these 
files how many time i tried to unedit. Not until i did an edit on these 
files a second time i was able to unedit them.

This is not really catastrophic, but we recently switched with one project 
to cvs and the trust in this sourcecode revision system is still not 
popular in the team. So i want to avoid that this further decreases.
Did i managed anything wrong ?

Olaf
