Hmm... not much to go on with your question here. A wild guess:

Did you make your changes to a checked out copy of CVSROOT. e.g.
% cvs -d/path/to/repository co CVSROOT
% cd CVSROOT
... create rcstemplate ...
... add DEFAULT line to rcsinfo ...
... add rcstemplate + error message to CVSROOT/checkoutlist ...
% cvs add rcstemplate
% cvs ci -m "some comment"

and then see the message "cvs commit: Rebuilding administrative file 
database"?
