This is more or less what I'm trying to set up, Checkout/commit over a small LAN
here. Everything would be over shared drives, but I don't know how to setup the
CVSServer, so if someone could point me to some documentation on this or any other
help towards that end... The Repository would be on this machine which is Windows 98
(I should be able to come up with a more elegant setup in the future, but for now, I
really just need this to work as it is.) With two other Windows machines accessing the
repository. Anyway... Thanks in advance for any help...
