"cvs [commit aborted]: cannot commit files as 'root'"

[Matthew Von-Maszewski]

Anyone?

I get the following message attempting to make a commit locally on the CVS
server:

cvs [commit aborted]: cannot commit files as 'root'

$CVSROOT is properly set.  All is fine if I switch to another user.  File
permissions in the repository look good too.

Is this an intended security feature ... or am I just being stupid again?
