[Cvsnt] Creating a new repository on ntserver not possible

Thu Dec 6 17:35:30 GMT 2001

I have done this, but still got this "bad Repository root" message...

I have set
CVSROOT=:ntserver:servername:d:/user/cvs

Any ideas????

Thanks in advance

Peter

The only time you should use a local CVSROOT
is when using "cvs init"

cvs -d c:/cvs init

After that, CVSROOT should start with :ntserver:
