[cvsnt] Why doesn't cvsnt do anything?

I'll get to the circumstances in a while, but the gist of my problem is
that cvsnt doesn't do anything unless I explicitly list the file I want
it to process. If I specify a subdir it does not to anything with the
files in that dir. For example:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Z:\branches\4.1>cvs diff

Z:\branches\4.1>cvs diff w2kProdVersion.h
Index: w2kProdVersion.h
===================================================================
RCS file: /cvs/cvsroot/project/mn/w2kProdVersion.h,v
retrieving revision 1.143.2.28
diff -r1.143.2.28 w2kProdVersion.h
45c45
< #define CORE_RELEASE_NUMBER             "3"
---
> #define CORE_RELEASE_NUMBER             "4"
65c65
< #define PRODUCT_VERSION_WIN             4,1,28,0
---
> #define PRODUCT_VERSION_WIN             4,1,29,0

Z:\branches\4.1>cvs --version

Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.02 (Servalan) Build 2064
(client/server)

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The "special" cirumstances is that this is running in a virtual pc on a
dir that is shared with the host machine. This is manifested as a
network share in the virtual pc. The virtual pc is running a VPN that
allows it access to the cvs server which is behind a firewall. There are
a number of subdirs, some of which currently contain modified files
which cvsnt does not seem to detect.

Any good ideas?
