(I want to know who hates me) : - ) Normally you should never see this message (its part of the underlying cvs wire protocol)... are you running the latest version of WinCVS (2.0.2.4)? > I have tried several versions of the above path with no luck.

Normally, on a Windows-based cvsnt server you would, on the *server*, create the repository using the cvsnt control panel applet. Normally, on a 'nix-based cvsnt server you would, on the *server*, create the repository by using the :local: protocol and giving the destination path , e.g. cvs -d :local:/var/lib/cvsnt/repo init Yes, you can remotely create repositories, but this has to be specifically enabled. -- David Somers PGP Key = 7E613D4E Fingerprint = 53A0 D84B 7F90 F227 2EAB 4FD7 6278 E2A8 7E61 3D4E
