You have set up relative mapping (repository prefix) under CVSNT, so that, for example, “D:\cvs\repo” maps to “/REPO”. That means you should be able to use “:pserver:user@host:/REPO”. However, CVSNT does not always communicate these paths to the client properly; in particular, Eclipse needs information for synchronization which is not included in this mode of operation. The solution is to change your CVSNT server settings to disable the use of a repository prefix, and use the full path of the repository, thus: “:pserver:user@host:D:\cvs\repo”.
