If this is the real reason you need to have the sandbox on a network drive, there are other ways to accomplish it. Newer CVSNT's support a POSTCOMMIT script, which could be used to automatically update a sandbox for the web server (which is what we do). Each developer must have their own sandbox, and as Tony said, the sandbox will only work consistently when it is local to their machine. If you have managed to get it to work with Cygwin's cvs, it is strictly because you are lucky. CVS is not designed (actually RCS) to manage network locks properly. John
