By default, cvs will try to add ~/.cvsignore to the wildcards found in
$CVSROOT/CVSROOT/cvsignore, ~/.cvsignore and in the CVSIGNORE
environment variable. As root is starting the cvs server side of the
connection it would seem likely that ~root/ is /root/ on your server
machine. I suggest that your administrator either make /root/.cvsignore
be readable by everyone or remove it.

You could also patch the ign_setup() function in src/ignore.c to avoid
trying to read a home directory ~/.cvsignore file if the -f flag
(corresponds to use_cvsrc=0) is present on startup.

Otherwise, the warning is just a warning and may be safely ignored.

        Enjoy!
