If this is indeed the case then we should ask Tony to make the lockserver case *insensitive*. It is a PITA to enforce people to all use the same case when they check out things since CVSNT accepts any case that the user might have typed in while checking out. I had great problems with ViewCvs (which is case sensitive) when I tried to autocreate links to the files in CVSMailer. I had to put a lookup scheme in place to clean up this. But it only involves one single server side application and this is not the case with CVS. Note that any root the user has in his CVS/*** files will be transferred to the CVSNT server *and used by it* during its own operations even though it should know by itself which case is correct for the repository roots.

I've had the same problem several times since upgrading from an older version. In each case, I just asked the user to change his CVSROOT to be the right case, and the problem went away.
