Re: moving cvs repository from one machine to another

[PRUDHVIDHAR lingala]

Once you setup the CVS server on new system

1) Just copy the entire CVS repository from old 
server and put it on new system
2) do following on the new cvs server
cvs -d <new directory name > init
3) check whether you are able to access the new
server's repository
4) Cut off the access to the cvs repository on old
system
