Now I have tested a few things:
1. Ran the offending command in a console window on the server.
This actually produced the wanted result.
2. Ran the command with -ttt switch on both client and server.
The result is different. On the server the command finishes after
listing a lot of trace info.
On the client the command stops at this point:
(initial loading of wrappers etc cut)

08:59:31: S -> run precommand proc server

The corresponding final section when running the same command on the
*server* looks like this:
08:56:13: -> close_directory()
08:56:13: S -> server_main started
08:56:13: S -> run precommand proc server
08:56:13: S -> run_trigger()
08:56:13: S -> trigger file not found.

08:56:13: S -> rcsbuf_open failed
08:56:13: S ->
rcsbuf_open(D:/CVS/3RProj/Tool/MazakDNC/Attic/.directory_history,v)
08:56:13: S -> rcsbuf_open failed
08:56:13: S -> No mapping file in this directory.
08:56:13: S -> Name_Repository((null),)
... now it continues to the end ....
This is rather strange, I cannot understand why the trigger dll:s don't
load because they *are* present in the CVSNT program directory...
3. CVSDIAG:
Finally,
this is the output of cvsdiag on the server:
D:\server\CVS-NT>cvsdiag

Notice that cvsdiag fails to list all of the configured repositories, we
have 10 repositories and they are properly listed in the CVSNT control
panel as well as in the registry. But cvsdiag seems not to find them
all....
As it is now the server does not behave in any way predictable,
sometimes a cvs status -q from the client yields the correct response
but when I try cvs -ttt status -q it never finishes.
I really don't know where to look from here.
Best regards,
Bo Berglund

I'd guess more along the lines of a AV or firewall issue on the machine.
AFAIK VM's are solid when it get to that level, and basically
indistinguishable from regular hardware.
Have you tried the regular command line? From that server? Checked
cvsdiag output?
I would guess the regular command line wouldn't produce any difference
in results, but the testing local to the server might.
