Not really, the normal setting is: :sspi:cvsserver:/repository and no login. SSPI uses the same login as was used when logging on to Windows in this case. Especially in the case of localhost (which by definition you have already logged on to) the connection string should look like this: :sspi:localhost:/alex or :sspi:yourpcnamehere:/alex > >Then when you will log in, you will be prompted for your password.

Did you configure the new server correctly? Which version of CVSNT did you install, the latest one byu now is 2.5.03.2141 Did you restart the PC after installing CVSNT? What happens if you type cvs -ver on the command prompt? /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
