This is probably a simple question, but I'm tired of pulling my hair out.

I keep the web pages for my server in a CVS repository,  I do all my work on my
workstation however, so I have had my copy checkout'd remotely on my
workstation.  IOW, I did:

> cd
> mkdir work/web/server
> cd work/web/server
> cvs -d server:/usr/local/www/cvs checkout root

where server is the hostname of my server, /usr/local/www/cvs is the home of
the repository, and root is a module that contains the root directory.  This
worked great.  Then, last weekend, I upgraded to 3.2-stable from May 15,
including the move to cvs 1.10.  After this, I can no longer do any cvs
operations on the workstation because of "Permission denied" errors.  They do
go away if I run cvs as root, but I shouldn't have to do that.  For example:

(on my workstation)

> rsh server echo foo           3 show that I have rsh configured correctly
foo
> cvs -t -d server:/usr/local/www/cvs checkout root
 -> Starting server: rsh server cvs server 
S-> do_module (root, Updating, , )
Permission denied

I would *really* like to figure this one out.  Did the upgrade to 1.10 break
something?
