Granted, the CVS plugin in Eclipse isn't that great (doesn't properly show branches, for example), it works fine for simple operations on the head stream. I simply use another client for more advanced uses. (Such as tagging and branching) Get rid of your repository prefix and all should be well. When you connect your connection string should look like this: :pserver:test at localhost:D:/test_repository/testroot where your repository is physically stored on the D: drive of the CVS host server and is the directory/subdirectory /test_repository/testroot.
