[cvsnt] Problems connecting to a CVSNT Server

[Terris Linenbach]

Try:
net use \\vermont username password
And then re-run your CVS commands.

Try using -d:sspi:username at vermont:c:/cvs/repo (need to enter
"cvs -d:sspi:username at vermont:c:/cvs/repo login" first)

Try:
telnet vermont 2401
Hit enter -- you should see
cvs [server aborted]: bad auth protocol start:

"No such host is known" implies a DNS or Wins problem looking up the IP
address.  Try using the IP address instead of Vermont.
