Forgive the obvious newby question, but I'm at a loss. I'm reasonably new 
to system administration - I'm doing it because I'm the only one here with 
any unix experience at all - and I'm being asked to set up a CVS system for 
the content developers here - they're generating homegrown-XML-schema 
documents with various visual tools, and none of them particularly want to 
learn unix. I've got CVS running adequately under FreeBSD 4.1 from the 
command line - I can check documents in and out all day long, update, 
commit, and so on - but WinCVS and MacCVS (not MacCVS Pro) are giving me 
fits. I can check out a folder, I can import a folder, but it won't let me 
update or commit individual files. The initial upload of files to the unix 
server works - subsequent attempts to modify them fail with (if memory 
serves) an "error code 1" or some such. Can anyone suggest what I'm doing 
wrong? What environmental variable I've failed to set? (I'm using pserver, 
I've configured virtual accounts to point to a user named "cvs", which owns 
the /usr/cvs directory that I'm trying to use as a repository, and it 
bleedin' well works, even remotely, from the unix command line. Argh.)

I've got a log of a session showing where it succeeds and where it fails 
that I could send to the list, but I'd rather not spew a hundred lines of 
fluff at the list without cause.
