But when I go remote, I only know (for example): >:sspi:123.321.255.64:/cvsnt/cvsrepo No you don't! One way to get this working OK is to enter the name of your cvsnt server and its IP address into the system32\drivers\etc\HOSTS file. After this you can continue using the name of the cvs server and additionally if the IP address changes you need only edit the HOSTS file. Also you might need to use: :sspi:user at cvsserver:/repository and do (only once) a cvs login to cache the password of that user. This is generally needed if the PC you are using as client does not have access to the domain controller via the firewall. ... snip... >Suggestions? Would a different protocol work?

This means that the cvsnt service is not running at all on the target machine or that you are unable to connect TCP/IP to that machine. The error message comes from Microsoft and is grossly misleading... /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
