 Yes, that's the problem.  The CVS client does very little processing,
 almost everything is done on the server.  You can display both the
 client and server versions by using ``cvs version'' (not --version). 
 The problematic server is running CVS 1.11.1p1, which is positively
 ancient and predates the change to avoid annotating binary files.

Thanks it was version 1.11.1p1. I'll ask the admin to install a newer
CVS version. Is there a list of security problems that this version has?
Perhaps I need some arguments...

Andreas

 cvs status works without problems.

What does cvs status tell about the status of the binary files? Are
these really tagged as -kb?

Best regards,

Yes, all binary files (jpg, blend and zip) are marked with -kb. You
could see it yourself if you checkout the CVS repository I wrote in my
last mail. I tried the option -F to see what happened and here is the
result: ( I appended also the output to this mail)

 cvs annotate -F
cvs server: invalid option -- F
Usage: cvs server [-lRf] [-r rev] [-D date] [files...]
-l  Local directory only, no recursion.
-R  Process directories recursively.
-f  Use head revision if tag/date not found.
-r rev  Annotate file as of specified revision/tag.
-D date Annotate file as of specified date.
(Specify the --help global option for a list of other help options)

 cvs --version  

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11.18 (client/server)

A! Perhaps I found the problem. I used another CVS server from
another project. And there is works with binary files! Is the annotate
version and binary stuff of the CVS *server* and not the CVS client a
problem here? I'm not able to log in with a ssh server. Is it possible
to get the CVS server version that I use with a client?

I think in this case the CVS server should be updated.

It should.  What does ``cvs status'' say about the problem files?

cvs status works without problems. I tested the annotate command with
some of my CVS checkouts and got this problem. Here is one that has
problems: (I've also problems with the developer checkout)

 cvs -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/makeh login 
 cvs -z3 -d:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot/makeh co makeh

 cd makeh
 cvs annotate

I get lot of binary trash on my console. Do you get another result?

Andreas
