[cvsnt] .cvsignore problem

Hello,

Can anybody tell me why the two directories !TODO and Maintenance don't get
ignored here?

--------------------------------------------------------
d:\batch>cvs ver
Client: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.5.02 (Servalan) Build 2064
(client/server)
Server: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.0.34 (client/server)

d:\batch>type .cvsignore
Maintenance
!TODO

d:\batch>cvs update -l
? !TODO
? Maintenance
cvs server: Updating .
--------------------------------------------------------

It gets worse... if the .cvsignore file is modified, the update even shows
the CVS folder as "unknown":

--------------------------------------------------------
d:\batch>type .cvsignore
Maintenance
!TODO

d:\batch>cvs update -l
? !TODO
? Maintenance
cvs server: Updating .
M .cvsignore
? CVS
--------------------------------------------------------

This doesn't happen in other directories, with the same client (different
sandbox though), server and CVSROOT.

Thanks,
Gerhard
