Good.

You don't need the "-d :exp:NAMEOFCOMPUTER:/CVSROOT" on any other commands.
This information is encoded in the files in the CVS directories.
Also, the position in the command held by the string "REPOSITORY" is supposed
the be the name of a specific file that you are committing. If you happen
to have a file named RESPOSITORY, and you didn't change that file, then you
will see what you described.

Again, no need for the -d option.

Instead of RESPOSITORY/FILE_TO_ADD, do:
cd directory
cvs add file_to_add
PS: Please shorten your .sig. 4 lines is standard, and many would say
that's too many (obviously I don't fall into THAT category though ;-).
