CVS problem


Hi,

I have a CVS repository in d:/cth103/CVS that I set up with a DOS port of
CVS.  I've recently installed cygwin, so I thought I'd try using the copy
of cvs.exe in there.

I have linked my D: drive into cygwin using
mount -b D: /d

Now from a DOS prompt if I try
cvs -d :local:/d/cth103/CVS diff Makefile

I get
' is missing '=' error in /d/cth103/CVS/CVSROOT/config: line '
/#cvs.lock): No such file or directoryory for `/d/cth103/CVS/3d
'VS diff: failed to obtain dir lock in repository `/d/cth103/CVS/3d
CVS [diff aborted]: read lock failed - giving up

Which is a bit odd.

When using the DOS port of CVS, it works fine.

Can anyone help me?

TIA
Carl
