[ JDK VERSION : 1.5.0_01 ] When performing initial check out (or an update with new directories) it's possible to enable the "Check out read only" check box under tab "Common options". Since built-in CVS client seems not to support this feature (as is does not support EDIT) this options should be disabled if working with built-in client for avoiding confusion: The files are not read only after check out but the user think they are.
This can be seen as a defect in fact. It's easy to fix.
Fixed in trunk: /cvs/vcsgeneric/profiles/cvsprofiles/src/org/netbeans/modules/vcs/profiles/cvsprofiles/config/cvs.xml,v <-- cvs.xml new revision: 1.152; previous revision: 1.151
