[cvsnt] Mismatched host name error

[Bo Berglund]

In WinCvs there is a TCL macro on the macros menu (WinCvs 1.3.x) that
is called Change Root (GUI).
To use this:
1. Select a top level sandbox folder
2. Activate the macro
3. It will display the current root in a dialogue
4. Edit the root string to suit the correct setting
5. OK (now the macro will change all CVS/Root files below the selected folder
   and set the new root.

You might solve the problem by uniforming the contents of the CVS\Root
files throughout the project.

This script will do the job (change the SET statemets to suit your setup):

@echo off
ECHO
**************************************************************************
ECHO   This script changes the CVS-repository for all checked out modules
ECHO
**************************************************************************
SET CVSROOT=:ntserver:whatever:c:/cvsrepos
SET CVSPRDIR=X:\Projects
FOR /R %CVSPRDIR% %%I IN (root) DO CALL :CHGROOOT "%%I"
pause
GOTO :EOF
:CHGROOOT
if not exist %1 goto :NEXT
echo Changing root in %1
ECHO %CVSROOT%>%1
:NEXT
:EOF

Looks like you are running old software. Please reposrt the versions
of both the client (WinCvs) and server (presumably CVSNT).
Also note that this list is about issues with CVSNT, it seems like you
are reporting problems with WinCvs. This product has its own list...
