Hi, I have the following problem: We have HTML templates that we have to develop and in another project we use WSAD for portlets development. So I thought I could put the HTMLs under version Control to CVSNT and use WSAD as CVS client. These templates are on a test-environment on an AS/400, we develop directly there, and we see immediately the result of the changes (I know, it's not a good practice to develope onthe server, but at the moment it is so.) Resumee: - The tHTML tremplates are on a test-environment on the AS/400 - The CVSNT Server is on a Windows XP Server. - WSAD is on a Windows XP Workstation. Now the idea: I made a "linking import" in WSAD to these templates of the AS/400, so now I see the HTMLs that resides on the AS/400 in my CVS client in WSAD (Note: The files resides not on my local workspace C:\). Then I shared the project containing these HTMLs on the CVSNT Server. The idea is that when I work on a file, and click on "save", the file is saved directly on the AS400 and I can see immediately the change the effect in the browser. What I expected however is that when I synchronize the folder containing the HTML templates, the CVSNT should show me the differences, and the I should be able to commit or merge the files in the CVSNT repository. Instead however, I get the message that the Workspace on the AS400 is identical with the repository of the CVS Server. So I cannot see any version history and I con't load an older version from the CVS repository. The files on the AS400 corresponds always to the files on the CVS repository and this happens without making a commit, but simply making a "Save". Do I make something wrong or is it however possible to realize my idea? In practice I don't want to have a local workspace on my C:\ , instead I want to use the server on the AS400 as "locale workspace". Any suggestion to this procedure/idea? Thanks for your answers. John
