That would be helpful, maybe CC me too and I'll see if I can repro it as 
well.  I have used CVSNT client against SF for a number of years and it 
has always acted as Tony describes -- the 2nd pass get the files.

What are the update options you're using?  I typically just do a fairly 
generic "cvs -q -z3 up -d" against the SF repository I update -- when 
you have the problem does removing an option or two cause the 2nd pass 
to be triggered normally?
