I would suggest that you try to delete the environment variable on the client. CVS only needs a CVSROOT specification in the import and checkout commands (and a few others), and uses a reference stored in the working copy all other times. Please also try to use the CVSNT binary that is supplied with BorCVS, to verify that it produces the same results. Then, what's the content of the "Root" file in your working copy ("F:\Bingo_Develop\Source\CVS\Root")? This is the reference that CVS uses to find the CVSROOT... BTW, have you been able to work with WinCVS in that working directory? regards, __ /homas _\\|//_ ///|\\\ ----oOO---(_)---OOo------------------------<http://www.bleier.at>---------- "A computer is like an Old Testament god, with a lot of rules and no mercy." |
