What do you mean by "shared it"? There is explicitly stated that you
should
*NOT* share any part of the CVSNT repository disk on the network! Why
did
you do this????

>When I try to (locally) login to server, using pserver protocol, from
WinCVS
>I get the following error:

You cannot just login with pserver unless you have first created the
users
who are to be allowed pserver access. But then again why would you ever
want
to use :pserver: when running locally on the same PC as is running the
server?
Using :sspi: is more appropriate and it does not require a cvs login.

>I have added line

>to services file in windows\system32\drivers\etc folder.

Why did you do this? Did you just think thta it would be a good idea by
yourself
or did you read somewhere that it is needed?
In fact it is completely not needed and it should be removed.

>CVSROOT in WinCVS preferences is
>:pserver:stanislav at localhost:/C:\cvs.

The root should be:
  :sspi:localhost:/cvs
