Then CVSNT will recreate the CVSROOT folder with its control files (there are lots of new files now, and these will not be created if you use your old CVSROOT). Then you need to check out CVSROOT and edit all the script files that were in use on the old server and enter the info in them using the slightly changed syntax (for example \ is no longer allowed in paths, must always be /).
