You should NEVER, EVER add a folder to the CVSROOT module!!!

That module is purely for CVS server internal files and only the
administrator should even have write access to that folder!

Your new folder should go to a location *above* CVSROOT.
Like this:
/Repository
  |- CVSROOT  <== Keep off this folder!
  |- Your_Folder
      |- your files


/Bo
