Hi,

I have the following strange bug:

setup:

- the pserver access method is used

- passwd is a sequence of entries of the form "cvsuser:passwd:realuser"
  In the setup there is only one user.

- there are two branches B1 and B2 
  (which were forked off trunk from some point)

- there are two files file1 and file2

- the files are modified in B2 after the fork point and committed.

commands:
  cd <sandbox of B1>
  cvs -n update -j B1 -j B2 file1 file2

RCS file: /users/cvsadmin/repositories/project.rep/project/file1,v
retrieving revision 1.1
retrieving revision 1.1.4.1
Merging differences between 1.1 and 1.1.4.1 into file1
cvs server: file1: No such file or directory

What the heck is happening?

And if I reverse the order of files:

$ cvs -n update -j B1 -j B2 file2 file1
RCS file: /users/cvsadmin/repositories/project.rep/project/file2,v
retrieving revision 1.1
retrieving revision 1.1.4.1
Merging differences between 1.1 and 1.1.4.1 into file2
cvs server: file2: No such file or directory

CVS never seems to know that there two file arguments provided.
Further it gives this strange "No such file or directory" error.

What could be the reasons?

There is NO problem when the access is local and not pserver!

Thanks.

Regards
Sankar
