I've looked everywhere for a clue to this problem. We just upgraded our server - when we moved the repository over, we didn't move the CVSROOT directory. we left the one that cvsnt created. Is there anything in CVSROOT besides the cvsrc file that could affect this? We have pretty much left the files in CVSROOT alone (both in the previous server and in the new server). Thank you, Joe E.
