Re: after Cygwin update, CVS authorization fails

The problems is that cvs checkout works in other
directories other than the e:\projects directory.

when I use the command line cvs that came with WinCVS,
I can operate on e:\projects without a problem.

the cvs version with my cygwin setup (clien/server
1.11) version is problematic.

Is there anyway to fix it?


when You say use one sandbox for each, do you mean I
should not switch between WinCVS and bash-cygwin cvs
while working on a project directory?

TIA for input.
