Can you give the exact commands you are using?

When you create a branch and update your sandbox to point there, all
files get a sticky tag, that's right. However, it should be the sticky
tag of a branch - thus, you can commit there.

However, if the tag is no branch tag, you cannot commit. Thus, I assume
you are giving wrong commands.

An example how it works (from inside of the sandbox):

$ cvs tag -r TAG_FROM_WHICH_YOU_WANT_TO_BRANCH  -b BRANCH_TAG
$ cvs up -r BRANCH_TAG

HTH,
Spiro.
