I'm trying to install cvsnt on a Vista Home Premium machine. Cannot connect via pserver from Eclipse after installation. Generates following error: Could not connect to :pserver.cvsadmin at localhost:/2009: I/O exception occurred: Connection refused: Fatal error, aborting. JAVADOG\cvsadmin: Switch to user failed due to configuration error. Contact your System Administrator. Also cannot login with WinCVS. I've tried this many different ways. Any ideas??? Full details are below. Many thanks for your help...
