<<<<< thanks for that update, please note
that the information was
only meant to represent the actual output as name were
changed to
protect privacy so the information listed below is accurate
but the
naming was changed.
If I could do screen captcha and show here I would
but it seems that is not possible.
just for clarification when i talk about the wincvs i mean
the
'client' when I talk about cvsnt I mean the 'cvsnt
server'.
this is the output from the bottom screen on the wincvs
client after
trying to login on the machine itself. The relevant
IPA.DD.RRe.SS has
been changed for obvious reasons. The names have been
changed as well
for obvious reasons.

As far as the CVSNT server is concerned I have initialised
the
repository using the following
......................................
Server name:IPA.DD.RRe.SS
C:/cvsroot/repository ...
/repository
CVS root repository
published
default
online
run as (client user)
Default domain (default)
Temorary Directory C:\TEMP
CVS sevrer port 2401
lock server localhost 2402
encryption optional
compression optional
....................................
Don't resolve client name is set x
Lockserver listens locally only is set x
(as this is a remote machine)
Allow remote init commands
........................
this is a pure development server so we want to see the
changes as
they happen, so IIS virtual server has been set so that it
looks like
this
-Internet Infomation services/Every_CVS (running)/CVSROOT
/Graph_Oracle_DB_file

It pings just fine thats the first thing I checked as the

I suspect you are probably right, this is what I found on my
mates
HOSTS file

should

how would I set this up if the IPA.DD.RES.IS not related to
a domain
name?

no, that is what was being output on the bottom half of the
wincvs
client screen

I actually followed your instructions to the letter made the
cvsuser
and cvsadmin users in the security tab and issued the
correct security
levels in the control panel management console

the trouble is that using the GUI is that the commands
don't get
shown, the buttons pressed were
1.open wincvs
2.Admin>click on
3.Login>click on
4.xCVSROOT>click on ellispeses ...>choose
5.protocal>sserver>click on
Repository Path>userIPA.DD.RES.Ss:/repository>click OK
6.click Ok>screen ask for login>
7.provide login password>
8.enter the password>eror screen shows the following

at this point I strongly suspect that you are right about
