| Limitations Of The Windows And Macintosh Versions
|
| The Windows and Macintosh distributions of CVS are generally limited
| in functionality. They can all act as clients, meaning that they can
| contact a repository server to obtain a working copy, commit, update,
| and so on. But they can't serve repositories themselves. If you set it
| up right, the Windows port can use a local-disk repository, but it
| still can't serve projects from that repository to other machines. In
| general, if you want to have a network-accessible CVS repository, you
| must run the CVS server on a Unix box.

If it runs on unix, I wonder what's the problem with a Mac?
