New install. My mistake. I didn't realize it was still enabled. Thx.

Actually, yes it is a cut-and-paste, here it is again including the command
line

$ cvs commit
cvs commit: Examining .
address@hidden's password:
/CVSROOTccess /var/cvs
No such file or directory

Here s the entire trace with the -t option

$ cvs -t commit
cvs commit: notice: main loop with
CVSROOT=:ext:address@hidden:/var/cvs
cvs commit: Examining .
 -> Starting server: ssh www.copperleaf.org -l bsmith cvs server
address@hidden's password:
/CVSROOTccess /var/cvs
No such file or directory

FYI, the cygwin cvs version is

$ cvs -v

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11 (client/server)

I played with changing the compression level of the jpg using the gimp. cvs

On the client side, TortoiseCVS is using plink which is connecting to sshd
on the server side.
This has worked successfully with all the other files. To add some more
detail, it is only a
handful of files (~12 out of 100) all jpgs that are acting up. The images
all vary in size, but
none exceed 30 - 40k.

This may be true. (it's always a possibility :) However, what gives me pause
is that it
is just certain files. As mentioned above, other files in the same
directory, created the
same way, can be added and committed fine.

I have a number of other modules (mix of file types including jpgs) that
work fine.

Since we are talking configuration, fyi, in the server cvswrappers file is
an entry
for jpgs:
*.jpg -k 'b'
