Is there anyone who has a COMPLETE set of installation instructions for installing both the server and the client for CVS? What I have seen lacks thorough instructions and relies on you having used the system before. What I need is something that makes NO inferences about my knowledge (or lack of it) and walks through everything. Screen shots would be nice, but can be substituted for by explicit instructions. I am NOT a UNIX/Linux user. I am an NT Admin. I am trying to set up CVS on a brand new installation of Windows NT 4.0 SP6a. I think I have installed the server, but can't find the syntax to correctly connect from a client. The server is called MW_RW and currently has two two repositories: c:\CVS and c:\sandbox which are registered and show up when I bring up CVSNT from the control panel applet. When I try to connect from the client, the farthest I've been able to get is with the following: cvs -d :pserver:mw_rw:cvs login it allows me to login, then says there is no repository. If I change the repository to /cvs or c:/cvs, the command freaks out and doesn't execute. I am really frustrated with the lack of step-by-step instructions which DON'T leave anything out or say "Go here to see more about how to use THIS file..." Please tell me there is a SINGLE document I can get which explains how to get running!!! And if possible, please point me at another such thing where I can install and configure SSH on the same box (to support remote work). I found one and the installation instructions are for Linux/UNIX. Only about half of them work under NT. It looks like a port of Red Hat's code that a NON-Windows geek tried to write instructions for. Thanks for the help.
