You must be root to do this...and on vodka:

	$ killall -9 cvs

Then you can do this as any user that is a member of the .cvs group.
Sometimes just this will do it without the killall, but sometimes it won't, as 
certain client conditions will keep re-creating the #cvs.lock.

	$ cd /home/cvs/<module>
	$ find ./ | grep \#cvs.lock

	Remove any #cvs.lock files or directories you find in this tree, in
	reverse order, IE if you find #cvs.locks in subdirectories remove them
	first before doing the one in the main directory.

	Re-commit the data.
