[cvsnt] cvs [checkout aborted]: Couldn't connect to named pipe on remote machine: Error 231

[Steve Dodd]

Hi,

I've recently installed CVSNT and WinCVS on 2 separate computers.  I'm trying to get WinCVS to access the CVSNT server over my LAN and I'm trying to use ntserver as my protocol.  I'm getting the following error when I try to remotely checkout a module using WinCVS.

    > cvs [checkout aborted]: Couldn't connect to named pipe on remote machine: Error 231

I read that this could be a file permissions problem, but I've mapped the directory between both computers.

I read that sspi is a better protocol to use, but when I try to checkout a module I get the following

    >cvs [server aborted]: can't create temporary directory C:\cvstemp/cvs-serv228: Permission denied
    >cvs [checkout aborted]: reading from server: error -1

Both of the computers are using Windows XP-Pro.

Thanks,
Matt
