The CVS server seems to be using some sort of CVS access control, i.e.
by a CVSROOT/readers or CVSROOT/writers file or something similar.

I am not sure of all the gory details about your particular setup, but
the message seems to imply that `mgrant' is blocked by the access
controls of the server itself.

Do you have a CVSROOT/readers or CVSROOT/writers in
/home/ng/tools/cvsroot/CVSROOT/ on the CVS server?

If yes, what do they contain?  Please take care of masking any sensitive
data (like user passwords), if you sent their contents!!!
