Hi,
 I have just started using CVSNT and have come across a frustrating
problem.
I went through the tutorial etc. to understand how the system works,
importing a project of mine. Then, when I have set up and initialized a
new CVS root and CVS project, CVS seems to be claiming one of the
directories I am importing (the one called src) is already present in
the project, and therefore does not appear any where in the project.

After I do th "cvs -d import" command, each directory except the src
directory appears with an "N" before it, while the src directory has an
"I"
before it.

I have tried uninstalling CVSNT and reinstalling it, creating new
CVSROOTs with different names, renaming my project, deleting all the CVS
directories in my project, all to no joy.

How can I reset everyting in the system and just start again? Or just
take that one directory out of where ever seems to be remembering it?

Thanks, Charles
