I believe prior messages on the list have indicated that if you are doing
some dev on Unix and some dev on MS, having the server on Unix is the better
option. I suggest you search the list[1] about unix vs windows server.
as for CVS vs CVSNT (which can also be installed on Unix), if you will not
be using any of the extended features CVSNT offers, CVS comes with most
linux distributions and is probably already installed so you can just begin
using it.
