Don't panic!

Reinstall the CVSNT server service.  Create a repository with the same 
name as the old one.  Put your RCS files (the ones that end in ,v) in 
there.  Your users should be happy at that point (assuming you have 
permissions, etc. set correctly).

If you need immediate professional help, you can contact March-Hare. 
They provide paid support for CVSNT.  Otherwise, just ask your questions 
here.
