Oops I probably should have mentioned:

the file c:\pserver\cvsroot\config contains:
SystemAuth=yes

There is not passwd file or other config information.

CVSROOT environment variable on the nt server is set to:
CVSROOT=:ntserver:ntsrvr01:c:\pserver\cvsroot history

(not that I think it makes a difference...)

regs,

Arthur
