So we would be able to do 
	cvs -d :local:/ewcode co all

Where ewcode maps to /e//network/g-drive/cvsrepo/ewcode?

Build 68 should pickup the control panel settings automatically (as will

the upcoming build 69, which I'll probably push out tomorrow if I get
time).

That'll be the cvshome.org cvs client, which doesn't like drive letters.

  Try /e//network/g-drive/cvsrepo which is a compatibility syntax for 
that client.
