? I am using a windows machine, but the cvs server is on a unix platform,
which I don't have access to.

When you use "cvs" from the command line, you're using a cvs client.

You shouldn't need a "cvs client".

If you are useing Windows, map the server CVS is installed on in explorer.
Then it becomes the "F:" drive or what ever.

In advanced properties, add "F:\Programs Files\ CVS for NT" or where ever
CVS is installed on the server to your path.

Now if you type "cvs" in the command window, you will get a command line
"usage" help reply. Now you can work out the command line that works for
you and move it into Ant.

David,
   I am using eclipse, and everything works fine from there.  However, I'm
trying to automate some tasks.  I don't have a command line cvs client on
my
pc.

Thanks,
  Derrick
