> It worked.

Notes:
1: in future please ask WinCVS specific question on the WinCVS newsgroup
- that way you are sure to get the 'best' answers:
http://groups.yahoo.com/subscribe/cvsgui

Ajay: thanks for answering the question anyway - but it's preferred
etiquette ask WinCVS questions on the WinCVS forum since people who read
info-cvs are generally NOT interested in WinCVS specific answers.

2: WinCVS uses CVSNT, which has it's own newsgroup:
http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo

If you are using CVSNT client and it's a client problem then this is
probably the correct newsgroup...

3: To avoid this problem in future simply do not specify the username in
the CVSROOT, ie:
 instead of:
  :pserver:address@hidden:/repo

 use this:
  :pserver:host:/repo

 This way the 'username' is taken from the current logged in username,
but this only works on CVSNT client (which you appear to be using since
you are using WinCVS) - hence why you should post to the correct
newsgroup to get the correct answer.
