After the restart, follow these steps to continue the set up.
1. Start the CVSNT service control panel (Start, Programs, CVSNT, CVSNT Control Panel).
2. Stop the CVS Service (you can leave the CVS Lock Service running). You will restart the service later.
3. From the Repositories tab, click Add.
4. Note: This step actually initializes the repository. If CVSNT was installed before, this old repository association may still exist, making it possible to omit this step. In that case, however, it is important that the contents of the repository have not been disturbed. If they have been changed in the interim, you must manually remove the repository folder and reallocate it here for it to be properly initialized.
In the Location field, type or browse to a local directory on a local NTFS drive where a repository will be held. (CVSNT only supports local NTFS drives for the repository.)
5. In the Name field, type the prefix name by which you want this repository to be known. You cannot supply just the root of a drive here (such as C:\ ) because the control panel application adds another slash when you specify a root, which would then not work.
6. Click OK. If the CVS repository directory does not exist, the service controller asks for confirmation to create it. The service controller also initializes the directory.
7. Add more repositories if necessary.
8. In the Server Settings tab, be sure "Run as user" contains "(client user)."
9. Record the settings with the Apply button (not OK).
10. In the Compatibility tab, for the Client, select Non-cvsnt clients.
11. Select all of the options for this configuration.
12. Record the settings again with the Apply button (not OK).
13. In the Service Status tab, start the CVS service. (If you mistakenly clicked OK in the previous steps, Start uses the old parameters.)
You are now ready to use CVS from the Eclipse plug-in.
