That's how: cvsnt checks to see if you're an administrator of your
login domain. There were previous discussion on this some time ago (I
disagree that the login domain should dictate admin status--machine
admin is much more appropriate, IMHO). Administrator == automatic cvs
administrator.

You can add an "admins" file (I believe is "admins", IIRC), ala
"writers" or "readers"--but for security purposes add it directly in the
CVSROOT on the repository and NOT through cvs with checkoutlist.
