I converted our 2gb VSS database to CVSNT using vss2cvs.pl and ran into a similar problem. My solution was to create a batch file with each of the main project roots. It appears that VSS has a lot of problems when trying to do things on $/ For example, if you do a ssarc on $/ it works, but ssrestor won't accept $/ so as far as I can tell the backup is useless. Same problem with vss2cvs.pl as it uses ss.exe to get directories and it seems to not like $/ I made a batch file that called vss2cvs.pl with each main project, vss2cvs.pl vssproj=$/proj1 vss2cvs.pl vssproj=$/proj2 etc... Worked fine and we have never looked back. Everyone who complained about switching are now die-hard cvs fans and have loaded it at home :-) John Cole -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org]On Behalf Of Trinh_Nguyen Duy Sent: Monday, June 21, 2004 9:15 PM To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: [cvsnt] Can I convert entire VSS database to CVS Repositoy ?
