I'm having to try to rebuild some old code at work prior to changing it
and one of the ant build steps is to check out some code from CVS.

The original author no longer works here, hasn't for about 5 years, and
his user id is no longer valid.

When I try to check stuff out (as me) I get the message:

Fatal error, aborting.
<username>: no such user

Any pointers as to what to look up to understand and resolve the problem
will be greatly appreciated. I'm not exactly sure what to search for as
I'm not logged in as that user, but he was the last one to check in the
code.
