[cvsnt] Committing a file with no changes causes error

[Gaer,Jeffrey J]

Running on windows 2000 sp2 ( client and server), 
using torise client 1.8.13
cvsnt 2.5.01 build 1976

Not sure if this is client related or server. But if a file timestamp shows
it as new but the file is not changed we get an erroneous error message. To
create the problem open a file in wordpad, add a space to a line save it,
delete the space save it, try to commit and the error is 


Error, CVS operation failed

Tortoise Tip:  Someone else has committed a new version of one or more of
the files you are trying to commit. You need to do a CVS Update and then try
to commit again.

Make an actual change to the file ( i.e add another space) save it, and it
commits ok. 

I was wondering if there is a way to force the server to allow commits with
no changes. Its easy to cause this scenario if a file is copied over itself.
Or with certain ide undo features. Thanks in advance for any help.
