Yes. We have both wincvs and solaris cvs using the same repository, no
problem.
** DO NOT USE RSH TO ACCESS THE REPOSITORY ** Windows NT rsh client is
broken, and will do cr/lf translations in all cases.
Use either :pserver: or :server:, or if the files are on NT, use :file:.
Don't use the :ext: (external RSH) method.
Example:
cvs :pserver:michael@sara:/lab/CVS
wincvs michael@sara:/lab/CVS (using "password" authentication)
cvs :server:michael@sara:/lab/CVS
wincvs michael@sara:/lab/CVS (using ".rhosts" authentication)
(We've used both, and switched to pserver once we finally got that to work)
