They both use the same main file name "cvs" and cvsnt uses updated RCS tools. You'll probably want to remove the old CVS before installing CVSNT. Back up your repository, remove CVS (leaving the repository), then install CVSNT and configure it. You should be working fine at that point. I'd recommend you experiment on another box before updating your production system if there are any questions / concerns. IMHO it's time well spent to have some breathing room and not be worried about experimenting while you're checking out CVSNT. Regards, -- Glen Starrett
