Best would be to set up a Linux Box as CVS-Server and use command line
options. It isn't hard to do and it's more reliable than WinCVS.
If you need a Windows GUI and don't need all CVS features you can use
Component Softwares Revision Control System
(http://www.componentsoftware.com/ . I'm afraid it's not free for
commercial use). It's less powerful than CVS, but easy to use and if you
switch to CVS later on you can convert your RCS Repository to CVS.
