Now I don't get it at all. Is there a difference between CVSNT on
Linux (your repository) and on Windows (mine)???
Examples:

E:\tmp\CVSNT>set CVSROOT=:pserver:kallekula at antares:/PC

E:\tmp\CVSNT>cvs export -r HEAD ModuleXX/ThirdFile.txt
U ModuleXX/ThirdFile.txt

E:\tmp\CVSNT>set CVSROOT=:pserver:cvs at cvs.cvsnt.org:/usr/local/cvs

E:\tmp\CVSNT>cvs export -r HEAD cvsnt/windows-NT/win32.cpp
cvs server: cannot find module `cvsnt/windows-NT/win32.cpp' - ignored
cvs [export aborted]: cannot expand modules

As you can see the exackt same type of command works on my repository
but not on yours....

E:\tmp\CVSNT>cvs ver
Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.01 (Travis) Build 1902
(Release Candidate 4) (client/server)
Server: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.01 (Travis) Build 1901
(Release Candidate 4) (client/server)

My repository is build 1902 whereas yours is 1901...
