The account that runs the cvsnt service does not have any permissions to go out on the network, so putting the repository on a network share will fail. It is also very dangerous because the tight control over the repository files that cvsnt has on a local disk is not there on a network resource. It *is* possible to use network shares as repositories, but it is discouraged. If you really *must* do it then you need to reconfigure the cvsnt service to use another account than SYSTEM and also to make the share available for this other account. Drive letters are not persistent..... Really, put the repository on the local disk and get a stable system! /Bo On Tue, 14 May 2002 20:34:10 +0000 (UTC), "Wagner, Dean" <WagnerD1 at diebold.com> wrote: >I know this has been covered in several messages in the archives, but none >seem to give me quite what I'm looking for. > >I am running cvsnt from an NT system at my desk.
