I mean, don't share directories between Windows and Unix/Linux; the file formats and filesystem semantics are different. They're similar enough that many things will work and fool you into thinking that everything will work, which it won't. Unless you're using the server strictly as a server and only access the directory from the client, never directly on the server, it's a bad idea that will eventually bite you. > My sandbox happens to be on a server share (Windows client/workstation, > linux smb share) but I have observed the same behaviour on a stand-alone > Windows based sandbox. > > cygwin cvs works fine for me. I don't use WinCVS. cygwin works fine if you tell it to use DOS line endings by default, or if you never use any native Windows tools.
