Todd,
I had the same problem. What I discovered was a bogus entry in my
/home/srosenst/.cvspass file (I use pserver mode) that contained the info for a
root login to my CVS server :
Was: :pserver:root@mercury-nfs:/cvsroot/REPOSITORY/gplus xxxxxxxx
Should be: :pserver:srosenst@mercury-nfs:/cvsroot/REPOSITORY/gplus xxxxxxxx
How it got there I don't know (I'm fairly new to CVS), but when I removed the
entry for root everything worked again. You might just want to do is delete the
.cvspass file and perform a new login as the non-root user.
I hope this helps.

Subject: CVS Commit Problem
To whom it may concern,
I seem to be having troubles committing files to the repository, whenever I
commit a file, cvs complains that it cannot be done under the user root when
infact I am logged an as a different user. I am using Tortoise CVS Client
for Windows and a RedHat Linux 7.1 pserver. I have created a passwd file in
CVSROOT and I can authenticate to it no problem logged in as a user other
than root, why is it that cvs is still referencing the root account whenever
I try to commit modules??
Any help would be muchly appreciated
Regards,
