Server or client?

Most of the development of CVSNT (server and client) is done on 64 bit XP, and it's been tested on Vista too. It's not a native 64 bit app though - 32 bit on 64 bit - the only reason I know of why you'd want true 64 bit in CVSNT is to support committing very large files (over a few hundred MB per revision).

Contact the CVSNT newsgroup/mailing list for more information:
http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt
or
news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt

The company I work for is the primary supporter of the FOSS CVSNT project, and we also do commercial builds with the name 'CVS Suite' - we do 64 bit releases as customers require them, so if you really need a native 64 bit CVS Server or client for Vista you could talk to the sales team.

Hello Steven,

have you tried the "normal" 32 bit Windows version? Doesn't it work?
I would expect it to work on 64 bit Vista, too.

Regards,
Spiro.

I haven't heard about any Vista-specific CVS, but have you tried running
the CVS you have under compatibility mode? There's a description of that
here, although very nontechnical:
