Also, let me know if there are any pre-requisites or known issues about the upgradation.

DON'T do this!!!!

There is absolutely no reason to mess with the respository files just
because you are upgrading the CVSNT server! CVSNT works just fine
using your existing repository as is, the install/uninstall does not
touch a single file in your repository.
Doing it your way will destroy completely all revision history of your
modules.

No, just uninstall CVSNT from the control panle Add/Remove programs,
then install the chosen CVSNT version. Please note that 2.0.58 has
some as yet unresolved issues so it is better to go for 2.0.51 at the
moment.
