We're using cvsnt in our department for more than a year know. From
the beginning we made heavily use of ampersand modules. Currently
we use version 1.11.1.3-72 on the server and on all clients. With
version 2.0.1a we get completely different results.

With version 1.11.1.3-72 it worked like this:

modules:
      __submod1   -d Project\submod1      dir1
      __submod2   -d Project\submod2      dir2
      __submod3   -d Project\submod3      dir3


	mainmod1    -d MainMod1       &__submod1\
                                    &__submod2\
                                    &__submod3


A "cvs co mainmod1" produced the following working copy:
	MainMod1
          |
          +-Project
               |
               +-submod1
               +-submod1
               +-submod1

A "cvs co -d MainXXX mainmod1" only changed the toplevel dir to "MainXXX".
The rest remained the same.

With server version 2.0.1a the same commands result in a completely different
working copy :

"cvs co mainmod1" gives:

	  (null)
          |
          +-__submod1
          +-__submod1
          +-__submod1

"cvs co -d MainXXX mainmod1" gives:

	  MainXXX
          |
          +-__submod1
          +-__submod1
          +-__submod1

So it seems to me that the -d option in the modules file is ignored.
As we rely on the behaviour of version 1.11.1.3-72 the new version
is unusable for our department. It would be nice if you could reenable
this behaviuor.

Thanks in advance
