there have been sporadic reports that this is possible.  However, no one
to my knowledge has followed thru with a detail explanation of how to
get it to work.  I maintain the cygwin cvs package -- and I don't use it
as a repository server (of course, I don't use any repository *server*
-- I store all my stuff in a local repository) -- so I don't know if
this is possible or how to do it.

If you figure it out, please report back, and I'll include your tips in
the next documentation set.
