sorry for the long lines ;)

ok, updated the server to 1.11, and now i get:

% cvs update
cannot create_adm_p /tmp/cvs-serv61846/images
Permission denied

( "images" is a directory inside the current working copy,
  which is in the repository and got created by checkout, and there are files
  in it. dunno if that matters here. permissions for images/ are 755 and it 
  is owned by my user )

i verified, by running a cvs update for each file, that the problem only
appears with directories, all files update just fine.

drwxrwxrwt   2 root  wheel      512 Oct 11 18:49 tmp/
so permissions on /tmp are ok.

regards, and thanks for help

( just to mention again.. this problem doesnt appear when i update a rep. on
  the CVS server itself, as the same user i run it over network )
