How to remove CVS lock

Hi All,

CVS repository is setup on linux server and we are using wincvs to checkout/tag .. etc but we are getting below lock error so how to remove this lock and what is the reason for lock??

cvs rtag: [02:47:30] waiting for username's lock in /space/cvs/modulename

Try the release option - CVS release - even better is to get the "username" to release it.
