I have the same problem with VirtualBox mount points. Filesystem vboxsf doesn't allow to checkout with CVS, my error was:

cvs [checkout aborted]: cannot rename file .new.FILE1. to FILE1.php: No such file or directory

Try to play users groups, permissions and even symbolic link on local VM, no way to get it works. Same thing with permissions on Windows (host) side.

I have to checkout on local directory and then copy to vboxsf mount point, from host or local VM.
