All users are the same...

If I try to cvs annotate any file directly in the repository, I get the
following error:

cvs annotate: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory
cvs [annotate aborted]: no repository

If I run the same command on the same checked out (sandboxed) file, it
works as expected. For what it's worth cvs is version 1.11.2.

Cheers,
