Re: Cvs connection : UNKNWN HOST

[Werner Müller]

Okay,
it might work if you use servername instead of IP number of Server.
also you can try to activated LMHosts (System->network->WINS-address)

It seems Cvs needs to have names instead of ip-numbers (don't  ask me why). I
don't know how the  underlying function  gethostbyName() works, but it seems it
works  right with LMHosts activated

Strange anyway ....
