Arthur,
why are you advising inexperienced people to use the cvs init command
to create the repository when the most proper way is to use the CVSNT
control panel instead?
When you use cvs init, the repository will not be published anyway and
you have still to go to the control panel to publish it and set its
connection name anyway, so why not tell people to do it *all* from
there???
