CVSNT is available for Linux and Windows - it works identically on both.
However I do not know about TkCvs at all.

If you require the features of CVSNT (eg: lock server, atomic
commits/update, multi lingual filenames, binary deltas, Unicode files,
mergepoints, bug id's, etc), or if Windows is your *primary* development
platforms the CVSNT may be best for you - but I'm biased.  

I originally responded because the subject suggested that perhaps you
were not very familiar with the "unixness" of traditional CVS (as most
windows users).

I think they were originally written by different teams.
