Bug in CVS

[Rafael Jesus Alcantara Perez]

Hi:

I have found an erroneous (I think) behavior in CVS. In the version 1.10.8 
(cvs-1.10.8-8.i386.rpm from Red Hat Linux 7.0), if you pass to the CVS 
server, the parameter '-f', then it should "... not read the cvs startup file 
(~/.cvsrc)", but in the new version, 1.11.1p1 (cvs-1.11.1p1-3.i386.rpm), the 
server tries to mount CVS user home directory to read something. In my case, 
that directory is mounted from my work-station using NFS, so when my 
work-station is off, then the CVS client complains saying:

cvs [server aborted]: can't chdir(/misc/remote_home/rafa): No such file or 
directory

Which is the correct behavior?

Greets.
Rafael.
