This one I hope someone on the list has advice on.  The
CVS tree is owned by user cvspserver.  Apache is running
as another user.  The cvsweb.cgi program does not have
permissions to write the lock into the directory because
it is running as another user.

For normal pserver interaction, you are running the service
which is running as the dedicated cvspserver user.

Any ideas out there?

I don't know why this wouldn't work.  No one else has seen any other issues
and I just logged in OK with a cut and paste of your command.
