Title: How do I see a list of files being edited?

Greetings all,

Darn it, I had this working I thought, but now it isn't and I can;'t tell why.

The goal:  To enter a command (cvs editors?) and get a list of all the files which are
someone is editing.

The environment:  I have a cvs repository on Solaris 2.5.1.  For Unix development I access it via
CVS 1.10, downloaded prebuilt from sunfreeware.com.  For WinNT projects, the Unix box runs
SAMBA, and I access it via CVS 1.10, the command line version for NT.  I have "cvsread=true"
in my environment, my sources are read-only until I do the "cvs edit" command, then the
read-only attribute goes away. 

The behavior: It works fine on the Unix projects.  But when I run "cvs edit" on a file, and then run
"cvs editors", the command produces no output.  Wait!, I just tried it again, and it works
this morning!  Errrr... 

Caveat: I've used RCS under MS-DOS pretty extensively in a former job, but never used
Unix or CVS until just recently.

Question:  Well, since it works this morning, I'm not sure what my question should be.  Anyone
have any comments on all of this?
