The repository is on a linux box (redhat version 7.0).  cvs version on this 
machine is 1.10.8.

I tested this on a NT client (cvs version 1.1.11) and on a solaris intel 
box (version 1.10.7).

The clients access the repository via the .rhosts mechanism.

I also tried with the repository on the solaris box.

Another weird thing: if I export it on the same machine as the repository 
then only the file is retrieved (not the directory).

I will send you an example of the repository to reproduce this problem in a 
separate email.
