Using the current 7.4rc2 on Windows 7 x64 with JDK 1.7.0_40, NB completely hangs and has to be killed using the task manager, when I try to commit a changed Java file to the CVS repository (uses putty's plink to commit to CVS repository on Solaris SPARC 2.8 host). This renders 7.4rc2 unusable for me.
Last line in messages.log: #65188 warning C/S protocol error (section 5.10). It's regurarly observed with cvs 1.12.xx servers. unexpected pathname=probe/outlier/src/main/java/com/ti/fs/probe/outlier/service/dispo/InventoryService.java missing root prefix=/cvs/data/apps relaxing, but who knows all consequences.... Yep, we have a cvs 1.12.12 running on the server...
Configured CVS on server to use cvs 1.11.12. Message about protocol error is gone, but NB hangs completely nevertheless when trying to commit a second Java source file (first one after restart worked).

Will try as soon as I get a chance. JFYI: no issues with 7.4rc1.
Cannot reproduce the behavior now (sigh...).
