Weird Error

[rodrigo.laperuta]

Hi, as root i`ve created my repository under /cvsroot with:
cvs -d /cvsroot init

and i can't add other projects.....

And when I checkout the modules file using 'cvs checkout CVSROOT' edit and
try to check it in cvs gives me an error:
]# cvs [commit aborted]: cannot commit files as 'root'
whats the deal?

Oh one more question, how do i set cvs up in server mode??

thanks
