The easiest way is by running CVS on the server: check something out,
modify a file, and start to commit it. When CVS pops up the editor for
the log message, look for the lock files -- they should be in the
directory tree under LockDir; if not, look in the repository. You
should see one file named #cvs.lock and another that starts with
#cvs.wfl.
When you're done, exit from the editor without entering any text and
abort the commit at the prompt.
