The information you want to enter is stored in the registry at this
location:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\CVS\Pserver
The value you look for is:
RepositoryPrefix  (surprise!)
Just enter the location of the repositories top here as a string using
forward slashes instead of backslash. As example I have this in my
test machine:
RepositoryPrefix = F:/CVSREPO
Repository0 = F:/CVSREPO/TEST
Repository1 = F:/CVSREPO/PC
Repository2 = F:/CVSREPO/CML
Repository3 = F:/CVSREPO/CUSTOMER
