(Combining a couple of emails since they asked some of the same questions, plus I'm adding the user who's been experiencing these problems to Cc: )

In reply to Derek's other questions:

(Matt, can you answer the "history" question?)

What are the permissions on /home/p2homer/cvsroot/CVSROOT itself?  And
/home/p2homer/cvsroot, for that matter?  Also, would you mind sending a
transcript of a failed session using the global trace (-ttt) option
(e.g. `cvs -ttt co homer')?

Incidentally, why is your CVSROOT/history file executable?

Regards,

Derek
