I am using CVSNT 2.5.03 installed on a server running Windows XP Professional, and am accessing a repository on there via the CVS support in RSA v6 (ie Eclipse). On my work network, everything works fine, all the time. When I am away from the office, I connect to my work network via Broadband and a VPN. When I do this, CVS mostly works, but I get some occasional failures. Certain files or directories will not synchronize, and if included in a synch cause a synchronization failed message "Connection reset by peer: socket write error". Another operation which fails is applying a version tag across several projects. A colleague of mine experiences the same failure with applying a version tag even when on the work network (but it works fine for me on the work network). Synchronize works OK for him on the work network. There would seem to be some problem in the networking connection layer. Is this problem known/familiar? Can anyone suggest a fix -- it is a little irksome. Or how can I diagnose further what is going wrong and where (ie, is it Eclipse or CVSNT that has a problem?!). thanks in advance dave
