While browsing one of our repositories, I came across a part of the tree that did not 
belong where it was. It appeared as if one of the developers had done an import into 
the tree from her work area (the top of the checkin was CVS_WORK which was a 
locally-defined convention.) I noticed the file ownership and contacted the developer, 
who denied even needing to work in this part of the tree. 

How would it be possible for the files to be marked as owned by that user if she did 
not check them in? Is it possible we cannot trust the CVS server to write the files 
properly? It would not be prudent for another developer to use someone else's login 
account, but would that be possible?

CVS server is 1.11.9  on Solaris and users are all using WinCVS 1.13.10 pserver 
authentication.
