In the CVSNT control panel, under Advanced, check the 'Pretend to be a Unix 
CVS version'.

The really old versions used to have build numbers and letters to denote minor
versions - 2.0.0 was the first to have a proper numbering system.  The 
archives only go back to build 65 (Jan 2003) so you can imagine how old 57h is.
