But don't use whatever the control panel tells you, use your imagination instead (the control panel applet is broken in the beta release, but now fixed by Tony for the next release, I checked by compiling the source and it is now good). Basically the Prefix will be added up front to whatever root comes along to CVSNT from the client. Then it is compared to the RepositoryX entries in the registry. So if you have Prefix set to F:/ and connect using /SCM obviously the full root will become F://SCM which does not compare to the Repository0 entry and is not existing on the disk either. But if you change the Prefix to F: and use the same client root then you are just fine... /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden) _______________________________________________ Cvsnt mailing list Cvsnt at cvsnt.org http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs
