Bo, Your installation instructions were excellent. I thank you so much for your help. I moved my respository from UNIX to Windows 2000 by tar'ing it on UNIX, FTP'ing the tar file to the W2K box in binary FTP mode, then using WinZIP to unbundle the tar file. It seems to work okay, except that binary files (.doc, .pdf, .zip, etc.) are corrupt when I check them out. I tried checking them out using command-line cvs commands on the same system that holds the cvsnt repository. I also tried checking them out with WinCVS from another system. When I check them out from the original repository on the UNIX box, the work fine. Any suggestions? I assume I did something wrong in how I transferred the repository from the UNIX file system to the Windows 2000 file system. Thank you very much again. -------- Original Message -------- Subject: Re: [Cvsnt] moving repository from Unix to Windows 2000 Date: Wed, 08 May 2002 15:53:33 GMT From: bo.berglund at telia.com (Bo Berglund) Reply-To: bo.berglund at telia.com Organization: cvsnt.org news server To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook References: <3CD861B9.6AC084D0 at attbi.com> On Tue, 7 May 2002 23:30:32 +0000 (UTC), Art Tetrault <atetrault at attbi.com> wrote: >We have a small CVS repository on a Unix box that we access over a LAN >using WinCVS on Windows 2000.

Then copy the repository over from the UNIX machine to the W2000 PC. Configure the CVSNT service to recognize this repository. Now you should be able to use the repository as before, only you need to change the CVS/Root file for all checked out modules on all clients. Perhaps the best way is to tell everyone to check out their modules fresh from the new server instead.
