I am using CVSNT on Windows 2000 Pro. I am also connecting through :extssh: protocol using WSAD 5.1. I tried symlinking with Cygwin to cvs from cvs.exe and that didn't seem to change anything. I tried copying the cvs.exe from the cvsnt directory into the /usr/bin directory of cygwin as 'cvs'. That didn't change anything. If I rename the cvs.exe to cvs won't that break pserver? I tried pserver and pserver is returning "E cvs server", so it seems a problem with Cygwin when launching CVSNT executable. This problem doesn't show itself in earlier versions fo CVSNT with Cygwin :extssh: Tony Hoyle <tony.hoyle at march-hare.com> wrote in news:di6654$qss$2 @paris.nodomain.org: > Mark Townsend wrote: >> I got a response from the eclipse.platform newgroup.
