I've been trying to set up our Linux server as our CVS repository. I've
tried both 1.11.1p3 and 1.11.2, and neither of them seems to understand
the "cvs passwd" command from the CVSNT client running on our Windows
clients.

Is this (the "cvs passwd" feature) proprietary to the CVSNT port? Has
the source forked or something? Or is it just that there hasn't been a
mainline release for CVS with this fix in it (1.11.2 on the main line
was released on April 27, 2002 - was the "passwd" feature added after
this)?

Supplementary question: I suppose I can just build the CVSNT source
buildable on Linux? What's in 1.11.2 on the main sourceline that's not
in 1.11.1.3 CVSNT?

Thanks,
