[cvsnt] OK, now what?

[Victor A. Wagner, Jr.]

so, now that I've been using C:/CVSROOT for all my things, I find that I 
must now make my repository sharable externally.
What's the best way to do this?   delete the entire tree and change my 
environment variable then re-checkout?

Another problem.  When we moved (now _I_ have the repository), I have all 
the source that _used_ to be checked into a remote repository and need to 
put it into MY repository (yes, I know we lose the history)?
Can I import it?
What about all the CVS directories that are already in the source tree?
do I just delete it and check it out again?
What about the people who used to access the other repository... the IP 
address has changed, do THEY just re-checkout after I make a new repository 
here?

What should all the other people
