Yes. You end up with all sorts of issues with line endings, slightly
different versions of cvs, timestamp issues, etc. if you share sandboxes
over network shares. The -N option is there so you can tell the system
you know what you are doing and can handle the consequences and won't
come back here for support when it breaks...
