[cvsnt] Re: cannot login to pserver

[MoMad]

The thing is, the computer hosting CVSNT is behind a firewall and all of the
developers developing on the CVS are offsite or behind a seperate firewall.
The other thing is, I dont know how to configure it for sspi.  I mean, will
sspi work with WinCVS and TortoiseCVS clients?  Most of the developers use
those two clients, others use other clients ofcourse...

I just want to make the dam thing work.  Will it work with SSPI?  Also, I
dont want to have a windows 2000 user account for each user on the cvs...
well if it works ill go for it, but i had bad experience with windows 2000
accounts management....
