If you install CVSNT on Linux (do not use GNU CVS) then you can just
move the repository files over from Windows to Linux and get going.
Note that you might have to modify the CVSROOT/*** files since the
script format may not be the same on Windows and Linux.
But you need not worry about the actual source files in the
repository, they are the same format no matter which platform.
