I'm quite sure it's the documentation (and the source comments) that's 
behind. From what I remember the problem here is that CVSNT nowadays 
supports a server-side cvsrc file which might contain things like 
entries to enforce Reserved Edits, like:

edit -c
commit -c


Thus, the client *has* to contact the server in order to make sure 
there's nothing like that in cvsrc or, if there is, that noone else is 
editing that file. Of course that's just an example. Any option given in 
the server-side cvsrc should be honored by the client. Otherwise there'd 
be no point in having something like that in the first place.

Cheer,
