Trying to figure out the CVS repository server.
We have an issue where we are able to check out files from unix however not from windows. On Unix I have the cvs host set to /home/group/CVSROOT but when I try and access the folder from windows I get an exception that the server refuses connection.

On unix the CVSROOT is a filer and not the actual repository - trying to use SSH to connect to that server does not work i.e I can check out the repository on Unix but not on Windows. Is this an issue do I need the actual host or is there some CVS setting that is missing for me to be able to checkout the module from windows.

We know the NAS server - however would like to know the actual server that hosts the repository. Is there any way to figure that out use the filer host to connect from Windows.

Any help would be much appreciated.

rancid-cvs

rancid-cvs(1)						      General Commands Manual						     rancid-cvs(1)

NAME

       rancid-cvs - initialize CVS or Subversion and rancid group files and directories

SYNOPSIS

       rancid-cvs [-V] [group [group ...]]

DESCRIPTION

       rancid-cvs  creates the directories and router.db(5) for each rancid group and handles the revision control system (CVS or Subversion) set-
       up.  It must be run after installation and whenever a rancid group is added.

       rancid-cvs reads rancid.conf(5) to configure itself, then proceeds with the initialization.  First of the CVS or Subversion repository,	if
       necessary,  and	then for each of the rancid groups listed on the command-line or those in the variable LIST_OF_GROUPS from rancid.conf(5),
       if the argument is omitted.

       Running rancid-cvs for groups which already exist will not cause problems.  If the group's directory already exists, the  import  into  the
       revision control system will be skipped, and if it's router.db(5) already exists, it will not be altered.

       The command-line options are as follows:

       -V     Prints package name and version strings.

       The  best  method  for  adding  groups  is  add	the group name to LIST_OF_GROUPS in rancid.conf(5), then run rancid-cvs. Do not create the
       directories manually, allow rancid-cvs to do it.
