CVS, ...
I want to set up a source code control system. We have a couple servers, but the one most available runs Win2k. Unfortunately, it appears the CVS Server is not really available for Windows (there are experimental versions according to the CVS website, but that's not something we want to get into).
There's only 2 of us, sometimes 3. Client machines run Win2k and Linux.
What are our choices?

>>WinCVS is not BAD at all. We finaly chose to use it.
so, you are saying you are using the "experiental" server version? how difficult was this to set up?

What or who is this? Google turns up nothing on it.

>>ask someone for an old computer (x486) and set up a new CVS-server on that
This idea had kinda occurred to me in the back of my mind, but i wrote it off thinking that an old machine would be too slow. maybe i'll look into it more since someone else thinks it is feasible.

Yes we use this experimental server version :-)
It was very easy to install and configure on a NT server.
for the MSDEV addon we use the "Jalindi Igloo" add on to make integration with the wincvs just like vss :-)
Go for it .. it is free and stable:
We manage source code of 20 K of lines and ~1 K of files.

Not sure which way i'll go yet, but this was good info. I'll select this as the answer just because it has the most keystrokes
Please ohh.. please someone clue me in on where to find a version of CVS that runs on Windows????? WinCVS seems to be a client... Am I crazy?
I'm looking for a CVS server
I'm looking for a CVS server
- run CVS on the client running linux and leave it running (thus creating a new "server" for CVS).
- ask someone for an old computer (x486) and set up a new CVS-server on that
