I guess they mean something like: In some response messages from the CVSNT
server the full path is returned (so with the prefix, so with the drive
letter). That
would clarify their problem as they cannot compare it that case.

Say the prefix is turned on, so
    C:\cvsrepo\myrepo\myfolder\myfile
would be referenced as:
    /myrepo/myfolder/myfile
But in some responses it is referenced otherwise,
for example: C:\cvsrepo\myrepo\myfolder\myfile
or maybe even without the repository: \myfolder\myfile

This is what I suspect they mean.

PS: Any idea what is meant with the CVSNT FAQ about avoiding the prefix, but
using
the same drive?

Kind regards,
Filip

TBH I've no idea what that means - there is no way for the client to
know that a repository prefix is in use (well maybe if it's clever, but
it would have to work on it).
