Installation of the CVSNT server
cvsnt installer < - download insttaler nya kat sini.. Step to configure :

File system typeMake sure your system is only using the NTFS file system!Also make sure you are logged on as an administrator of the PC (using an account with administrative priviliges).And most important: Use the local disk on the CVSNT server!IMPORTANT for XP-Pro users:


You MUST switch off Simple File Sharing, which is the default for XP (as recommended by Microsoft to make XP somewhat compatible with Win95-98-ME)!You do this by opening a Windows Explorer and then use the menu command Tools/Folder Options. Select the View tab and scroll down to the bottom where you find this item. Uncheck it now!


Now for the actual installation and configuration:

1. Get the latest release of CVSNTGet the latest CVSNT Innosetup installation from Innosetup CVSNT Installer download


2. Create CVS directoriesCreate two directories on the target machine, c:\cvsrepos and c:\cvsrepos\cvstemp. If you have a separate disk partition to spare for CVS then use that instead. The important point here is that the disk where the repository is located on is NTFS.


3.
Directory security and permissionsGive c:\cvsrepos\cvstemp security settings that allows full control for all accounts including SYSTEM.

Important:The cvstemp directory must NOT be located in either c:\WINNT\Temp or anywhere in the "C:\Documents and Settings" tree because these locations have imposed restrictions on user access!Notice that on XP-Pro out of the box from Microsoft the permissions cannot be set like this until "Simple File Sharing" is switched off (see above). So you must do this if you use XP-Pro. XP-Home is totally unsuitable for CVSNT!

4. Install CVSNTRun the downloaded CVSNT setup file and make sure to change the installation path to c:\programs\cvsnt (I am paranoid about removing any spaces in paths used by cvs!)Start screen:

License Agreement


Install directory selection:Note:I strongly recommend that you install CVSNT to a path that does NOT contain any embedded spaces, for example like this:
