(Sorry if a dup, first e-mail was to large.) Thanks Gerhard for the suggestion. I gave it a try, but it didn't help. I think I discovered the problem. I believe Microsoft pushed down an update sometime this year that caused the user names that get handed off to the CVS server to change case. I have a script that only allows certain users to delete tags. The script checks a list of user names and was working at one point. Without any changes to CVS, the script stopped working. It used to work for the user "clehman". I just had to change it to "CLehman" to make it work. I believe the users names are now being handed off from windows to the CVS with the first two letters capitalized. It looks like the watch command is case sensitive. I don't think I can modify windows to hand off with all lower case. Here is my question. Does anyone know were to look in CVS to remove watches. Specifically what file/field do I need to modify on a ,v file or configuration file to remove a watcher or turn of watches? (Bo and Tony, I'm hope you might be able to tell me what I need to modify under the hood to fix this problem.)

The command help seems to indicate that you need to specify what watch action you want to add or remove: Gerhard
