With sspi the login step is optional if you want to use your existing NT
credentials to log in (it does this transparently).

A better test would be to do:

cvs -d :sspi:ammun:/test ls

and that will produce a list that likely only has CVSROOT in it, assuming
you haven't yet added any modules in your repository.  The extra items in
your CVSROOT--the port, username are optional if you want to use the
defaults.

Personally, I recommend TortoiseCVS (the latest "unstable" release seems
quite stable to us) for the other devs but WinCVS 1.3 beta XX is nice too,
mostly depends on taste.  You can run both at the same time without a
problem to evaluate.

Im running CVSNT 2.0.4 and WinCVS 1.2 under Windows XP.
I want to use sspi-protocol for communication.

Both, CVS-Server and WinCVS-Client are running on the same machine
(=ammun) for testing CVS. The repository is located in c:\cvsrepo\test
(I configured this in CVSNT->Repositories).

After I opened a command window I did following:
   >set cvsroot=:sspi:ammun:/test
   >cvs login
     Logging in to :sspi:<my username on ammun>@ammun:2401:/test
     CVS password:

I think this means my login succeed?

When I try to login with WinCVS (Admin->Login ...) with the same
Settings, I receive the message: "Set the password authentication first
in the preferences !"

What do I have to change?
