Hi,

I checked CVS is working on Server very well and WinCVS is working on
Client very well.
Now i have connect to CVS from WinCVS thru SSH............
When i am doing checkout i am getting the following error:

NEW CVSROOT: gonehome@66.70.20.120:/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/cvswork
(ssh authentication)
cvs checkout project2 (in directory C:\)
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above
messages if any)
*****CVS exited normally with code 1*****

I set the following setting to connect CVS from WinCVS thru SSH
I opend WinCVS preferences and entered the following detials.

Enter the CVSROOT:
                gonehome@66.70.20.120:/usr/local/tomcat/webapps/cvswork (where
gonehome is username and CVSROOT is

usr/local/tomcat/webapps/cvswork )

Authentication:

                        SSH server

In Ports

Now when i am doing checkout i am getting the above error.......
Please help me what i have to do to solve this problem.
