Stpehen, You are running both CVSNT client and CVSNT server - this list is only for problems with CVS (not WinCVS at all which is different again). WinCVS is "just" a GUI in front of the cvsnt client (look for cvs.exe in the WinCVS directory, and check the properties) - so WinCVS will have nothing to do with this problem.
Please upgrade the server and client to 2.5.03.2260 and if the problem still occurs report it to the CVSNT newsgroup: http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt or news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt WinCVS by default ships a very very old CVSNT client with many known bugs, and you haven't reported the server version either. I vaguely remember this bug from years ago. Also note that if you are checking out a 160Mb file you'll need at least three times that much memory available (even more with -kB binary diffs).

I have a large source tree (~1.5 GB) that I am trying to import using WinCVS. The source code resides on a Linux 2.4 machine, while my CVSNT server is on a Windown Server 2003 box. I have noticed that when I try to import a tar.gz file that is larger than ~184 MB I cannot subsequently check that file out without receiving an "Invalid Argument" error. Due to this I have had to keep these large tar-balls separate from CVS (not something that I am particularily happy about). Has anyone else observed this issue? If so, is there a known solution?
