RE: Can't connect to localhost using XP home

Hi Bo

Thanks for the reply but I still get the following
error:
cvs -z9 -q -d :sspi:/localhost/CVSRepository import -C
-I ! -I CVS -W "*.vtg -k 'b'" -W "*.elf -k 'b'" -I *.o
-m "Initial import" -n -- LineCard (in directory
D:\Projects\LineCard)

cvs import: bad CVSROOT - Hostname required:
:sspi:/localhost/CVSRepository
cvs [import aborted]: Bad CVSROOT.

***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****

Regards,
Charles
