Hi everybody!

We are using CVSNT 2.0.50 on a win2k sp4 server and we have some quite big repositories running on it.

Everything worked pretty smooth for month 'til yesterday. When I now try to work with one specific file (do update,edit,diff,commit) I get the following error.

cvs -r -q update -P -- <classname>.java (in directory <path>)
cvs update: malformed CVS/Notify file
cvs update: malformed CVS/Notify file
cvs [server aborted]: Error communicating with lock server (send)

Regardless of this, the file is accessable on the CVSNT server file system. and everything seems to be 'normal'.

I found only one file 'til now with this behaviour but it might be possible that there are some more corrupted ones.

Can anybody point me to the reason or even solution for that error?

Many thanks in advance!
