Sounds like a deadlock situation. You kill off one of the deadlocked processes, and it continues normally. CVSNT's locks are more fine grained than they used to be (was directory only, now is file level) so I would guess that this is a natural consequence (not good, but natural). Unfortunately I can't offer any help here -- best bet is to try an set up some sort of scripting in a test environment that can repro the problem and submit it. If it can be repeated, it can be fixed. Note that I'm just speculating on the solution. I haven't been following this much since I don't have a lot to offer with this problem. Good luck. -- Glen Starrett
