Connecting CVS for Dreamweaver to a Linux Server running CVS

Is CVS for Dreamweaver able to connect to a Linux Server running WinCVS 1.3.17.2 Beta

We do not have WINCVSNT running on our desktop.

This is our error message.

cvs -d:sshonn@linux.opadev.dol.gov:/home/cvs/projects/cfbci-tlc "login" -p "*****"

Logging in to :sshonn@linux.opadev.dol.gov:22:/home/cvs/projects/cfbci-tlc

mkdir C:Projectscfbci-tlc


cvs -z1 -d:sshonn@linux.opadev.dol.gov:/home/cvs/projects/cfbci-tlc "co" "cfbci-tlc"

Cannot access /home/cvs/projects/cfbci-tlc/CVSROOT
No such file or directory

The message is clear
Cannot access /home/cvs/projects/cfbci-tlc/CVSROOT

Please check on Linux your CVSROOT.
CVS for Dreamweaver can work wirh ANY linux server CVS.

Hope you can fix it.

I am also having problems with a similar configuration.

I am very confident about my settings as I am successfully using identical settings with other CVS clients (TortoiseCVS, WinCVS, etc.).

Here is a transcript of my attempt to checkout a module. Any advice is greatly appreciated!

=====================================
cvs -d:pserver:michael.pe@cvs:/cvs/ "login" -p "*****"

Logging in to :pserver:michael.pe@cvs:2401/cvs

mkdir C:cvs4dw

A subdirectory or file C:cvs4dw already exists.
cvs -z1 -d:pserver:michael.pe@cvs:/cvs/ "co" "sitemaps"

cvs checkout: Unknown method (`ssh') in CVSROOT.
cvs checkout: warning: skipping invalid entry in password file at line 1

OK, I finally solved my problem - I had some "bad" entries in my .cvspass file, which was located in %HOMEDRIVE%\%HOMEPATH%.

Once I removed those and retried several times, i finally got a checkout to work.

I am still having many other problems, which I will post shortly.

ok, tx
