My concerns were merely that I had heard noises about using CVS on disk shares and was worried (in some part) about corruption, though I could not foresee it. All the clustered machines will be on a Gigabit backbone, so this should negate the network throughput issue.

The only one that I can see would be large files with frequent changes over a slow network. But even that wouldnt seem like much of an issue.

Alas, I once more seek your advice though. I intend to build a clustered linux solution for our developers to use. This would comprise of one central server upon which all the developers home directories and cvs server would reside. They will be logged into any one of many machines (nodes). My concern is being that each of our developers home directories will be a disk share from the central machine, and all the checkout/commit will be done via pserver onto these shares (I am considering using NFS to create the shares). If anyone can give me any guidance or foresight of any pit falls with such a mechanism, it would be gratefully appreciated.
