How can an Unix CVS client access a CVSNT Server?

[pansz]

I'm sorry to post the message again, but I really need help about some
problem with CVS,

I found that an Unix CVS Client can't access a WinNT CVS server.
because WinNT CVS server's CVSROOT is somewhat like
:pserver:address@hidden:e:/cvs
where you must specify the absolute path as "e:/cvs"
but in a Unix CVS Client you must begin the repository path with '/', like
:pserver:address@hidden:/local/cvs
or CVS will treat "e:" as an illegal port number.
I've tried to modify "client.c" and "root.c", but in vain. Maybe I haven't
understand the program.

who can help me about modifing the CVS Unix Client to connect to a WinNT CVS
server? or there's other way to specify the connection parameter?

I really need to use the server in WinNT, so if someone can help me on
this, I'll be appreciated.
