Permssion Denied Error on Win98 |

Folks,
I am trying to check out a project onto a Window98 machine for the first
time. The checkout fails midstream with a message something like the
following:
U core/raw/data/GO.zip
U core/raw/data/LL.zip
cvs [update aborted]: writing core/raw/data/OMIM.zip: Permission denied
There are a couple weird symptoms.
* The project itself is regularly checked out and updated by other
users
* If I use the same userid and password that is failing on thw
Windows98 box, it will succeed if I try from an NT or 2000 box
* I get a similar error message from both the command prompt version
of CVS as well as the WinCVS GUI client
* If I try multiple times, the error will occur in roughly the same
place, but often not exactly the same place. Sometimes it fails on a later
file, sometimes on an earlier one.
* If I try an update, immediately after the partial checkout, I
sometimes get another file or two, but the same error surfaces.
* The files that it fails on are typically large files that have
been checked in as binary files (10's of MB)
Here are the details of the configuration
* We are using .passwd on the server for authentication. The users
have been set-up with CVS-specific passwords.
* The server is on a solaris box with cvs 1.10
* The client appears to have plenty of disk space
Any suggestions on what the problem might be?
Thanks!
Dave
