[cvsnt] Checking out read only files

[David Vo]

How do I check out read only files? I'm using a cvs checkout
<modulename> which checks out my files with normal attributes.

When I checked out files in another module, which was put into source
control with earlier versions of CVS, I'm forced to use the edit
command and they're marked read-only.

Now I'm confused because it seems like a checkout on modules recently
created does an automatic edit.

Thanks alot for the help! -D
