Hello,

I've been trying to get the ethereal source out of CVS for a while now,
but it keeps failing with this message...

[...]
U ethereal/xdlc.c
U ethereal/xdlc.h
cvs server: Updating ethereal/debian
cvs server: failed to create lock directory in repository
`/cvsroot/ethereal/debian': Permission denied
cvs server: failed to obtain dir lock in repository
`/cvsroot/ethereal/debian'
cvs [server aborted]: read lock failed - giving up


This happens every time, even with a fresh checkout.  I saw a question
like this in the archive but it was not answered.

Any ideas?
