I don't know, but if you haven't changed your CVS client then it looks
like you have a security issue.  I believe if you aren't using a lock
server for CVS that's running on the server, then CVS has to perform
writes into the repository's CVSROOT directory to temporarily lock
files during an update.  You may not have write access to CVSROOT, and
this is why your update (which you expect to be reading files) is
failing.
