Have you upgraded the server or the client?  I think you are probably
still running the 2.0.51 client and using the 2.5.04 server.  

WinCVS is NOT A CLIENT.  CVSNT is the client and WinCVS runs it.
Upgrade your CVSNT client please.

Upgrade the client and the server and the problem will go away, or
upgrade the server to 2.5.05 and set the options as described in bug
5555.

NEVER EVER EVER EVER EVER modify your repository.  The repository is
like an Oracle database - noone would open oracle database files and
make changes using notepad - and you shouldn't with the CVSNT
repository.
