I just tried checking out the clotho project with anonymous CVS. I got the following:
loki [173] cvs -z3 -d$cvs_root co clotho cvs server: warning: cannot write to history file /project/clotho/cvsroot/CVSROOT/history: Permission denied cvs server: Updating clotho cvs server: failed to create lock directory for `/project/clotho/cvsroot/clotho' (/project/clotho/cvsroot/clotho/#cvs.lock): Permission denied cvs server: failed to obtain dir lock in repository `/project/clotho/cvsroot/clotho' cvs [server aborted]: read lock failed - giving up
Yesterday, I had the same problem with the gsharp project. Perhaps the procedure for setting up new projects is buggy.

Sorry about the massive delay. I am having to filter out so much spam in these mailinglists and your message just got lost.

Hm, works fine for me. Are you still having this problem?
