[cvsnt] Re: Explanation of crash on cvsnt server?

[Daniel Rabe]

Here's a stupid question... Does the "Something bad happened" message come
from the server or the client? My client and server happen to be the same
machine... but my CVSROOT is a file path, like c:/cvsrepo/vss. Wouldn't this
imply that the client is doing all the work without talking to the server?
