No trouble here, everything seems to be normal.

Hmm, I have only done cvs login once, when initially checking out 
the ethereal sources. After that, I just do cvs -z3 update or
cvs diff to keep up-to-date or generate diffs.

Also, to reduce "option fatique" I have the following in my
$HOME/.cvsrc

% cat .cvsrc
update -P -d
diff -u

This makes "cvs update" equal to "cvs update -P -d" and cvs diff
equal to "cvs diff -u". The -P option removes empty directories and
-d option pulls in any directories that were added to CVS and are
not yet present in the local copy.

Try running "cvs update -d" and cvs diff after that.
