Hello Arthur,

Thanks for your quick reply.

Tortosie is a gui front end to CVSNT - for the purposes of diagnosing
this please just use the command line.

Right now I have in my repository file:

Repository0=/home/cvs
Repository0Name=/home/cvs
Repository1=/home/cvs/
Repository1Name=/home/cvs/

Which entry do I have to put to make active UTF-8 ?

These is on the server, and in the windows client I have Tortoise with the
configuration:
TortoiseCVS version 1.8.16
CVS version: Concurrent Versions System (CVSNT) 2.0.62.1817 (client/server)
SSH version: TortoisePlink Release 0.56

I'm using Debian (Lenny repository).  I think I tried already the option
with the dpkg-reconfigure locales to change the language to the es_ES.UTF-8
UTF-8 option, and it didn't work neither. But I would try again. If there is
something more that I could do I will apreciate your guide.

Thanks for your help,

Regards.
