Sam, 

You may want to try the cvsnt mailing list as well (subscribe at
www.cvsnt.com)

I assume you are using Tony Hoyles cvsnt ?

Reading the past messages there should help, I've also attached a recent
e-mail between Tony, Myself and another lister... (at the end)

Regs,


Arthur

This is needed only for ntserver mode, pserver will work with the standard
version.
Also ntserver mode won't work on Win95 clients (Seems to be a Win95 bug).

This won't work.  Use either:

CVSROOT=:pserver:rukman@pc-rukman:f:\cvsroot            (pserver mode)

or

CVSROOT=:ntserver:pc-rukman:f:\cvsroot                  (ntserver mode)

Also make sure that WinCVS authentication is set correctly to either 'passwd
file on server' for pserver mode, or
'nt server' for ntserver mode.
