[Cvsnt] Is there a great difference between NT Workstation an d Server installation

[Bo Berglund]

I don't know about any differences applying to workstation/server that affects
CVSNT. I am using both and have seen no problems. Both NT4 and W2000.

Remember that unlike shared drives and other such things which users are logged
on to day in and day out the CVS commands are sent to the server, executed there
and the result sent back in a second or a few seconds. Then there is no longer
any connection between the server and the client.
So if you have a 5 user limitation it would surely be 5 *concurrent* users and I think
for this to take effect you will need to have hundreds of developers if not more
constantly issuing CVS commands to have a >5 user collision in the few seconds
CVS executes on the server.
This is assuming ntserver, which uses named pipes, is limited the same way as shares
are. If you use pserver, which runs solely on TCP/IP sockets then I cannot see that
you would have any limitation at all.

Does NT Workstation have some soft of differences compared to NT Server,
which have effect on how CVSNT behaves. Same guestion applies to Win2000
also.

Workstation has a max. 5 user limit with standard disk access to shared
drives (I'm not 100% sure of this, but so I'm told). Does the same thing
limit CVS access to max 5 persons. I hope not.
