Description sunnyajmera 2009-09-12 04:50:11 UTC 
Hi All,

 I am trying to setup CVSRoot directory using NetBeans 6.5(Windows Vista). For that, I created a CVS Repository using 

 CVSNT tool. The Repository Configuration is like this:

Name: /cvsnt 
Root: C:/CVSNTRepository

Now, when i tried specifying /cvsnt as CVSRoot, I got cannot access specified repository. I am not able to figure out 
what's the issue. I have tried sharing this folder also but that didn't help me.

If anyone has any clue on how to resolve this issue, kindly reply.


Cheers,
Sunny

Please follow the instructions:
http://wiki.netbeans.org/FaqHowToAccessLocalCVS

So try this:
:local:/cvsnt 
(for "CVS Root" field in checkout wizard)

Closing as WORKSFORME. Please feel free to reopen it, if it doesn't work for you.
