Yes, you can. I have such a setup running myself. - Open the Internet firewall on port 2401 for redirect to the CVSNT server. I would not experiment with different ports until I get the basics working. - On the outside use CVSROOT=:sspi:user at server:/repo where "server" is the DNS name of your firewall or its IP address. - Do a cvs login and specify the user password Now all is set up for accessing the internal server from outside the firewall using a cvs client. >Client workstations are not on same CVSNT server domain, and run Windows XP >(Home or Pro).

Client >On TortoiveCVS client, I try to obtain Test module using: (I changed port) What do you mean by "obtain Test module"??? There is as yet no module except the admin module CVSROOT in your new repository! >:sspi:xpuser at myserver:1703/Test Do not change the port, use the default 2401 at the beginning. Go to a command window on the server PC itself and use the command line client so you can minimize problems. set CVSROOT=:sspi:xpuser at myserver:/Test cvs login (enter password) cvs ls There should be no errors here. Now repeat the same on a different PC on the inside network where you have installed the CVSNT client. If you have not installed it you can copy the contents of the CVSNT install dir to the other PC and set your path to point to the folder where the copied files are located. You should not get any errors here either. > >But get the same unrecognired auth error. >At first, TortoiseCVS gets this error and prompts for a password. >I type the very same password I used to register user xpuser on CVSNT >server. What do you mean by "register user xpuser on CVSNT server"???? There is no registration action used in CVS.... /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
