Hi list

We would like to use CVSNT to update some files from a Windows batch-file and from a GNU Makefile (cygwin). However, we have problems referencing the files because they stay in another directory and sandbox.

The batch-file or Makefile is run from "c:\cvswork\somemodule\" and the files to update is placed in "c:\cvslib\somelibrary\"

We have tried the command "cvs update ..\..\cvslib\somelibrary\" but CVSNT responds with the error "cvs [update aborted]: writing to server socket: error -1". Our experiments indicate that CVSNT is not able to reference across sandboxes.

Is it possible to do this and how do we do it?

We use CVSNT 2.0.58d client and server.
