after Cygwin update, CVS authorization fails

Subject: after Cygwin update, CVS authorization fails

I just did an update to my cygwin installation which
includes the cvs client as well.

after doing so, I can no longer login and checkout to
our cvs server.

my cvs client version using "cvs -version" says:
Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11 (client/server)

the peculiar thing is that, when I change to another
directory e.g.  e:\temp, then I can do all of my cvs
operations including login and checkout of modules.

It is only the e:\projects directory that is creating
this problem for me. This is where I maintain all of
my cvs managed projects, even prior to my cygwin
upgarde.

Also my failure message says:
for user  johnthorization failed: server mycvsserver
rejected access to /share/CVS.


As you can see the user name "johnthoriztion" is
mangled. My cvs login d is john, but the "au" part of
authorization is dropped and prefixed with my name.

I can jCVS and WinCVS to manager this same directory
e:\projects.

I seems to be only the cygwin cvs client that is a
problem.




thanks much
john.

any ideas?
