[cvsnt] cannot create read lock in repository '...': No such file or dir ectory

[David.Ventimiglia at WellsFargo.COM]

Hello,

Trying to checkout a module (say, CVSROOT) from a repository managed by
cvsnt, I get this error:

cvs server:  cannot create read lock in repository
'D:/cygwin/usr/local/cvsrepos/CVSROOT': No such file or directory
cvs [server aborted]: read lock failed - giving up

This is with cvsnt running on Windows NT 4.0 Server service pack 6a.  Any
ideas why this is happening?  The directory listed above does actually
exist, of course.  Thanks!

Cheers,
David A. Ventimiglia
