Hi,

I'm not the first person reporting this problem but my problem is 
slightly different.

Other reports say that cvs diff -N generate bad diff files but for me 
it doesn't generate diff at all for the new-file.

Example:

I've a local repository of the cvs.cvshome.org, in that repository i 
create a new file (named newfile) with some crap inside.
Then I run cvs diff -N:

$ cvs diff -N
? newfile
cvs server: Diffing .
Index: FAQ
===================================================================
(etc...)

And no trace of my newfile in the diffs.

If I insist:

$ cvs -t diff -N newfile
cvs diff: notice: main loop with 
CVSROOT=:pserver:address@hidden:/home2/cvsroot
 -> Sending file `newfile' to server
cvs server: I know nothing about newfile

(grr... stupid server)

Thanks
