[cvsnt] Why to upgrade CVSNT: 2.0.11?

[Bo Berglund]

And why CVS needs  to keep a list of tag strings in CVSROOT/val-tags is
completely beyond me. In earlier discussions it turned out that all of
a sudden the CVSNT server could start a scan of the complete repository to
fill the val-tags file with existing tags. Witha *big* repository with
many files this can take a very long time.
And for what purpose???
The list contains no valuable information at all as far as I can see.

Please report back how your upgrade goes.

We have also been using 2.0.11 and I have tried 2.5.01.1969,
2.5.02.2064, 2.5.02.2091, and 2.5.03.2125 and none of them work for us.
Simply reverting back to 2.0.11 makes everything start working again.

The problem we have is that if we try to access any tag that isn't
already in the val-tags file we get:

cvs server: could not read RCS file for JetDispatch.cpp
cvs [server aborted]: no such tag ZSV05-5-0-0-0000
cvs.exe checkout: in directory .:
cvs.exe checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or
directory

If the tag is already in val-tags, or I enter it in manually, the
operation succeeds.
