Um, somewhere in between.  When I changed the pserver spec to include a
port number none of us UNIX-centric types noticed that the new style
would exclude Windows server specs.  I'd like to know if there's a
workaround before I change the parser again though.

What version CVS server are you using on Windows?  What tools did you
use to compile it?

Does a spec like :pserver:usename@host//d/cvsroot do the trick?

What about :pserver:usename@host/cvsroot?  If this spec doesn't do the
trick, can you place a symbolic link from the default drive (probably
c:\cvsroot) to d:\cvsroot?

Thanks.
