You can set up CVS to work completely locally, without any server at all. Just set your $CVSROOT variable to
:local:/absolute/path/to/repository The GNU command-line client can also handle local repositories on Windows, in which case CVSROOT would be: :local:C:\path\to\repository >From what you've described, this is probably all you need. -- Jim Hyslop Senior Software Designer Leitch Technology International Inc.
