Is it possible you didn't check out the repository with your user account? Perhaps you're still working in an anonymous checkout of the tree?

Doublecheck that it got checked out as you by doing `cat inkscape/CVS/Root` and make sure the Root looks something like:

:ext:bryce@cvs.inkscape.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/inkscape

except your username instead of 'bryce'.

When it's checked out with my ID, it gives the same message. The Root is: ":pserver:a_b@...54...:/cvsroot/inkscape".

Hmm! AFAIK, SourceForge uses 'ext' not 'pserver'. Try checking it out like this:

cvs -d :ext:a_b@...318...:/cvsroot/inkscape co inkscape

If it *is* happening to use pserver, have you done a cvs login? Pserver requires doing a login, whereas with ext it doesn't since its ssh key based.

Also, have you been able to check out other SourceForge-based CVS modules non-anonymously?
