Claus,

Does your CVSNT service stop at the same time, or does it continue?
I've had this symptom on two Windows 2000 machines, both heavily loaded
with application server software (I've never yet actually persuaded
CVSNT to work in my work environment :-( ).  I've not yet found a fix,
and would be interested to see if someone else could replicate the
problem!
