I have a network drive that is shared and accessible from any of the Windows boxes I login to. On that drive I maintain a check-out from a linux hosts cvs repository. That all works fine. No general problems working on a network and I can't see what "CVS paradigm" this could possibly be breaking (that would be like saying that I can't do a checkout onto a NFS mounted drive in Unix). The only problem I have is that if the network share is operating in offline mode then cvsnt won't work. And in the case of my laptop, if I'm travelling OS then I'm in offline mode even when connected to the internet. I would have expected this to just work "out of the box" - to cvsnt it should look like a normal bunch of files in a normal directory. Now obviously that is not the case, but I don't understand why.
