Re: first install on Windows

Yes I installed CVSNT and I can see the cvsnt under
"add or remove programs" but that doesn't do me any
good.  I've hunted all over the control panel ... if
there is a CVSNT icon, I am unable to find it.  When I
go to Start -> All Programs -> CVSNT the options are: 
1) CVSNT documentation, 2) cvsnt home page, 3) CVSNT
Password Agent (it's running) and 4) uninstall cvsnt. 


I went through the directory where cvsnt is installed
and tried just clicking on cvsnt.exe and that brought
up a dos window that disappeared immediately and I
have no idea what the text was.  

I'm thinking I'll just install the server on my linux
machine if I can't resolve this today.

Thanks!
