I have tried testing the reserved edit cmd  (cvs edit -c) using CVSNT
2.0.41a and WinCVS 1.3.17.2 and I am not getting the results I thought I
would get. I set the reserved edit on a file, ( I tried a text file then a
binary file with the same outcome ), and  modified the file and the other
user was not prevented from editing and committing to the repository.  I
thought this placed a strict lock on the selected file?  Can someone explain
or correct me?
