Well, first off thanks for the reply. Actually I confused the term system user to a user account with administrative rights earlier. So I wasn't actually tying it to my system user. Anyway, I tried out all the steps you said, even to the point of following your paranoia of spaces.. ;) But it didn't work out for me. The only differences that I noted between your recommended steps were: - My server is running XP Pro - I'm running build 57c, rather than 57a. As soon as I attempt to login through pserver authentication it crashes. To be specific it crashes as soon as I send my password. Oddly enough, it doesn't even matter what password I send (correct or incorrect). It simply crashes as soon as it's sent. The following is the error signature that I'm receiving from it: szAppName : cvsservice.exe szAppVer : 1.11.1.3 szModName : CSLSP.DLL szModVer : 1.0.1027.1 offset : 00007427 Might you or anybody else have any other ideas? I've also tried v1.11.1.2 but that hangs when I try to start the service. Maybe it's an XP issue, or something specific to my comp, since I haven't seen a single issue like mine. Oh well, I'll keep trying.
