Sorry for the incomplete information. I already made the fix such that CVSROOT is /cygdrive/f/.... I included the info about f:/ because the afs module also maps the /afs structure on f:/. So I would think both work.
So, I now specify CVSROOT as /cygdrive/f/, but other problems continue. -seth --------------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] 7122 Wean Hall www.cs.cmu.edu/~seth School of Computer Science phone: 412-268-3828 Carnegie Mellon University fax: 412-268-4801 Pittsburgh, PA 15213 > -----Original Message----- > From: Mike Ayers [mailto:mike.ayers@;earthling.net] > Sent: Tuesday, November 05, 2002 5:23 AM > To: Seth Copen Goldstein > Cc: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: Re: CVS, emacs, shh, cygwin > > Seth Copen Goldstein wrote: > > I am having trouble using cvs, emacs, bash, etc. on my windows XP > machine. > > My configuration is: > > > > CVS: Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.11 (client/server) > > Emacs: GNU Emacs 21.2.1 (i386-msvc-nt5.1.2600)\n of 2002-03-19 on buffy > > Cygwin: not sure version, cygwin1.dll is dated: 2/25/2002 > > Ssh: (from cygwin): OpenSSH_3.2.3p1, SSH protocols 1.5/2.0, OpenSSL > > 0x0090604f > > > > I have afs (version 1.2.2b), but would also be ok with using SSH. > > However: > > > > If I can't set a CVSROOT to :local:f:/path (it complains about path not > > being absolute) > > Correct.
