Hi, The Windows and Macintosh distributions of CVS are generally limited in functionality. They can all act as clients, meaning that they can contact a repository server to obtain a working copy, commit, update, and so on. But they can't serve repositories themselves. If you set it up right, the Windows port can use a local-disk repository, but it still can't serve projects from that repository to other machines. In general, if you want to have a network-accessible CVS repository, you must run the CVS server on a Unix box.

Hello, Is WinCVS only a client for accessing a CVS server or can it also function as a server (repository) itself? I'm currently using it as a client to access a server remotely but am unsure if it has more capabilities. I think that, in general, when we refer to CVS server software we referring just to the software that is downloaded from http://www.cvshome.org/. Correct?
