I'm having this problem with jar files and I do have "*.jar -k 'b'" among other entries in my cvswrappers file. Also, if this were the problem, I would expect to have the same problem when going through cvs locally, but cvs local mode works fine. The problem is just with pserver. >Furthermore, using textmode mounts in cygwin main filesystem structure >is asking for trouble. I used to use binary mode but I like to access my cvs workspace both from the command line and using the built in client in my IDE (NetBeans). I've been using textmode mounts for a very long time (3 years) without any difficulties.
