cannot create_adm_p /tmp/cvs-serv17258/Cmd

[Richard Kandarian]

Error generated by cvs import command:

cannot create_adm_p /tmp/cvs-serv17258/Cmd
Permission denied

(Cmd is one of my module subdirectories.)

No apparent problem with permissions writing to /tmp i.e. I am able to create 
the directories using mkdir.

CVS client info:

MSW2K Server
CVSROOT contains :ext:
CVS_RSH refers to a kerberized rsh (compiled for cygwin)
CVS distribution obtained from Cygwin running in Cygwin

output of cvs version on client:
Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11 (client/server)
Server: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.1p1 (client/server)

CVS server info:

SGI IRIX6.5
CVS binary distribution obtained from http://freeware.sgi.com/
kshd from Cygnus kerbnet v1.2

This error is generated out of server.c

Unable to find archive of this list to see if this bug is already reported - 
sorry.

Function create_adm_p has many indistinguishable errno returns so not possible 
to refine report without building from source. I will try to fix this bug 
because I need CVS ASAP.

Please help if you can.

Thanks
