No. I think the problem I am having now is that cvs checkout first checks out the entire directory, then tries to remove everything from under it except the ones with the tag we want. So it tries to remove it but says "cannot remove <DDD> : directory not empty".
I dont know if using a Unix repository has anything to do with this.
I have repository on linux and dont see this kind of problem. Did you try checkout on another m/c? does cvs update also fails?
May be you can get some more info at: http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/cvsbook.html#Some%20commands%20fail%20remotely%20but%20not%20locally%3b%20how%20should%20I%20debug%3f

if you already have checked out source, then you can use "cvs update" command: cvs update -r TAG_NAME <module_name> or cvs update -r TAG_NAME <file_name>
also, speciying "-P" option would help. it prunes empty directories from the local copy.
Did i understand ur problem correctly?
