Is this all on the server side? Do you keep an Entries file also there?
I have noted a number of instances where I have this collision and by 
just waiting a few seconds it all clears up.
Might be because a CVSMailer process is hanging in there for about 30 
seconds before sending the email (to collect all info from all subfolders).
So just maybe the cvsnt thread that is owning that process hangs around
with the directory locked for that timout

Actually, LockServer is used for everything.  The cvs-servxxx 
directories are not involved with locking.. they're the temporary 
directories (one per commit/whatever) that cvs stores the client 
information in.  Often this will just be CVS/Entries files, unless 
you're doing a commit then it'll contain the new revisions also.
