Hi,

I'm a newbie on the list so any pointers to where I may find the solution to
my problem would be appreciated.

Problem

Just moved an (I think) CVS 1.11 based repository from its dying HP unix
host to a Windows 2000 server using cvsnt 2.0.14a by just copying over
the whole shooting match. The files all seem to be there OK, and I can check
out modules no bother. However, when I try to compile any of the
projects (via GNUmake) GNUmake complains. Using files that were checked out
from the unix repository previously seem to be OK. I'm guessing that
the auto-magic CRLF/LF translation that must have been working previously is
not now functioning.

Previously : Client Wincvs 1.2 on a Windows machine. Server : CVS 1.11 (I
think) on HP unix machine
Now	      Client Wincvs 1.3/2.0.14a		         Server:  cvsnt
2.0.14a

Has anyone any idea what is happening here - apologies in advance if my
trawling through the net looking for existing cases of this problem has
failed to turn up anything.

Thanks in advance,

Paul
