What are the NTFS permissions on your repository and CVS temp directory? 
  It sounds like there's a file system permissions issue in there.  Make 
sure that the users have full control of the files and still get full 
control on new files (there are separate settings).  If you aren't sure, 
just give them full control to the base directory of the repository and 
the CVS temp directory and everything within them, resetting existing 
permissions.
