No, don't do that. Network drives should NOT be used to get at or to store
your repository.

Access your repository using pserver, sserver, sspi, etc... BUT NOT local.

And stick your repository itself on a physical drive.

Setup the cvsnt server on a computer and access it from all others using the
above mentioned protocols.

cvsnt is, after all, a client-server system and should be deployed and used
as such.
