The use and purpose of checkoutlist is described here:

Do you mean rcsinfo?, explained here:

Yes this is the correct behaviour.

Checkoutlist is a server side function not a client function - do you
mean rcsinfo?

There are several known bugs in rcsinfo that are fixed in CVS Suite
2008, but not in any 'free' releases yet:

Commit info template incomplete on client:

5193

Template paths within rcsinfo not working:
http://customer.march-hare.com/webtools/bugzilla/ttshow_bug.cgi?tt=1&id=
5194

If rcsinfo defined export tries to create CVS/Template:

5268
