The old CvsntAdvantages page is a bit out of date but lists some of the differences... the big ones being things like mergepoints and sspi/active directory integration. > For example: > Maximum length of filenames? X character in CVS and Y characters in CVSNT? That's the same on both.. determined entirely by the OS. Windows has a limit of 260 characters for total length of the path including filename, but CVSNT on Unix has no such limitation (althouth you'll want to keep it below that if you have clients that use Windows). > Email notification to specified users when one commit a file to the repository? Supported in CVS and/or CVSNT? It's supported by various scripts on both. Not much difference there. There's a list of them in the wiki. There's also a simple builtin email generator in the latest builds of cvsnt, although it's no replacement for a purpose built script. Tony
