have you tried the localpath with or without the final separator? I 
think some people reported problems with the trailing separator at 
pathnames..


  I think a more detailed description of the problem is needed. please 
let us know the directory structure, exact format of the localpath, the 
cvs client protocol (is created by the runtime switch 
-JcvsClientLog=<pathName> - will create 2 files, one with extension .in 
and one .out)
