A few simple questions (I hope) on running CVS as a server on a WinNT
machine. I would prefer to run it on a Linux box but I might not have a
choice.
Can a CVS server run on NT ? I assume so if using cygwin.
Will it talk to clients on any platform (ie. checkin/checkout from
Win95/98/NT, Linux, Unix, etc) ?
Is running CVS server on NT as secure as a CVS server on Linux ?
What about the reliability of cygwin on NT ? I THINK (not 100% sure)
that cygwin is the cause of some of my system crashes with Win98. I am
assuming that NT will handle misbehaving apps better than Win98. Maybe
cygwin isn't misbehaving but just exposes more of the inadequacies of
Win98.
Thanks,
Brendan Simon.
