Hi I am using cvsnt with the ntserver access method and would like to have some kind of alias (a logical name like "ourcvs") for the ntserver-machine. All NT-servers in my company are named from a naming scheme as NKM18xxx where xxx is a unique number. This is the machines IP-alias as well. I can make a new IP-alias, and this works fine if I use the pserver access method (ie. :pserver:me at ourcvs:d:/source). But if I try with ntserver (:ntserver:ourcvs:d:/source) I get an error message "Error connecting to server on \\ourcvs...." I guess this is because the ntserver access method is not using tcp/ip but somthing like smb? However - is there some way to make an alias as I want to? Or am i stuck with the NT-machne-id? My reason for wanting this is that having an alias makes it possible to move cvs around, without having all developers change the cvsroot definition i WinCvs or whatever they are using, plus they have to release their projects and do a new checkout.
