  Yes, I am using mount_smbfs to mount a network harddrive to store all my devel code.

  I am using X11 cvsup stable-supfile. This is the snapshot of my modified cvsup file
------------------------------------------------
# Defaults that apply to all the collections

# The following line is for 7-stable.  If you want 6-stable, 5-stable,

   umask is 0022

  I don't know why ? :-) . But I did as it was listed in the FreeBSD handbook.

As a lost resort, I did a "cvsup -g -L2 stable-supfile", with just changing the HOST part without changing other entries in stable-supfile, and I was successful to download the code.

Currently, I am trying out to figure why the customised way is failing.
