I fully agree mate, but I live in so-called "corporate envirnment", which means in order to install an SVN Linux box I have to fight an army of orks, goblins, sysadmins and other sinister creatures in order to get anything like this done. By the time the fight is finished you've forgotten what you were fighting for.

So the pain of having CVSNT with all its quirks is so far tolerable :-)

Had the same problem and didn't find any way other then login in
first. Oh yeah I found another one : install a Linux box (without
ressorting to our "Linux yurk!!" server team ... ), install SVN on it
and say farewell to CVSNT. Seriously, using CVSNT is asking for
troubles. It will harm you more than it can help!

OK, it is sorted out now, indeed doing the trick with making CVS store the

worked. Good stuff!

I assume on Linux the .cvspass would do the trick, but on Windows we need to
perfom manual login at least once. It seems to be all happy thereafter.

Thanks a lot for your help.
