How did you create the repository called brian? It seems like you already have a repository (unfortunately named CVSROOT, which is kind of a reserved word for CVS). Did you maybe mean to say that you created a module 'brian' in this repository instead? If so, how did you go about it?
My hunch is that you have tried to manually create directories and files inside the CVS repository by copying with Windows Explorer. This simply does not work! You *must* work via the CVSNT service from a CVS client like WinCvs or the command line cvs. Look at http://www.devguy.com/fp/cfgmgmt/cvs/ for a bit more information on all of this. /Bo On Sun, 9 Dec 2001 15:21:15 +0000 (UTC), "Brian M Lyttle" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: >Hi > >I'm just getting into this whole CVS thing, so please don't flame me. > >I have setup CVS for NT in C:\Program Files\CVS for NT with my CVS root as >c:\CVSROOT.
