Re: first install on Windows

Have you installed CVSNT? If so, the you can configure the repository from control panel by clicking on CVSNT icon. This is akin to the cvs init command. Then you will have to start the cvs service so that the cvs server starts accepting client requests.

  Subject: [cvsgui] first install on Windows


  I just installed the latest recommended release and am unable to
  create the repository. I am running XP and I want the repository to
  be on the same machine as I installed WinCVS. I have opened port 2401
  - it is listed as an exception on the windows firewall settings and I
  have given it the name cvspserver. 

  I have always used cvs on a *nix platform and I'm a little lost in the
  Windows world. 

  Here is the error:

  cvs -d
  :pserver;username=Test;password=test;hostname=delphinium;port=2401:c:\CVSROOT
  init 
  cvs [init aborted]: connect to delphinium:2401 failed: No connection
  could be made because the target machine actively refused it. 

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

  Can anyone help me identify where the problem lies and how to fix it?

  Thanks.
