The named file c:\CVS\depot\inventory-admin\DATA\USERS,v is apparently
corrupt somewhere around revision 1.1417.  Corruption is not unusual in
CVS repositories and can probably be hand-fixed (with perhaps some data
loss) by somebody who understands the RCS file format.

Alternatively, the problem could be explained if you have ever used the
repository with CVSNT (as opposed to standard CVS).  If so, please read
the FAQ entry about converting a CVSNT repo.
