even with a mapped or protocol file path? What is it trying to do, or
is it trying to communicate at file level with an Apache/PHP module as
well?

one quick solution is to leave the CVS chrooted and run a cron (cron
on tail) to copy files between servers.

Is would be easier to just map file path, even via protocol or nfs (if
they are in the same zone)

does the Mantis side need to see into the CVS, it should not be
restricted even if that is on another server

Or is that the "serious file reorg" part...
