That is something to address with the cygwin and/or OpenSSH folks as it is outside the scope of CVS dependencies.

Sorry if this has been answered already... If you want to run it on Windows you'll need to go to http://www.cvsnt.org and download the Windows binaries for CVSNT.

Am I right in assuming that cvshome cvs requires cygwin for ssh support on windows? I also think I saw a post recently somewhere saying that cygwin ssh is not windows 2003 compatible...

The Windows CVS client binary distributed by the CVS Project is compiled using Microsoft Visual Studio 6.0 and does NOT require "Cygwin" or any other software.

RE: Question about binary distribution
The ZIP file you downloaded contains a CVS "client" suitable for running against the Win32 API (Windows 9x, Me, NT, 2000, XP, 2003). The CVS Project does NOT support "server" mode on any Windows version. Other projects do implement CVS compatible servers on Windows but since I don't know any of them well I'm reluctant to make a recommendation and leave that to others. > -Original Message- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of HSP > Sent: Monday, May 02, 2005 13:09 > To: info-cvs@gnu.org > Subject: Question about binary distribution > > hello, i downloaded cvs-1-11-20.zip from https://ccvs.cvshome.org but > i can´t find information about wich windows versions are supported.

You may also need cygwin and other tools to run this version of CVS on Windows Server 2003. Alternatively the free/GPL CVSNT server and client is a more common solution for Windows Server 2000 and 2003 installations: http://www.cvsnt.org/ Please direct questions about CVSNT to the CVSNT newsgroup: news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt or http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt Regards, Arthur Barrett ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Is Windows 2003 server suitable for cvs server ? thanks in advance!! If you're using Windows as your server, then you probably would be better off using CVSNT on your server: www.cvsnt.org Clients can use either CVSNT or cvshome's CVS. -- Jim ___ Info-cvs mailing list Info-cvs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
