Recent CVSNT releases have limited the valid syntax options for CVSROOT in a way that is incompatible with WinCvs' CVSROOT wizard. You will have to prepend the username and hostname to the Repository Path field, e.g.: username at hostname:/nsi The resulting CVSROOT should look something like this: :ext:hostname:/nsi (also take a look at http://livejournal.com/~ogiesen/tag/cvsnt#2910 for an example screenshot) Also, are you sure you want to use the :ext: protocol? If you need to connect via SSH, :ssh: will probably be easier to handle. Hope this helps. -- Oliver ---- ------------------ JID: ogiesen at jabber.org ICQ: 18777742 (http://wwp.icq.com/18777742)
