Subject: How to prepend a directory to the PATH to accommodate CVSNT?

I notice that Cygwin manipulates the path by prepending "
/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin:/usr/X11R6/bin:" to the windows PATH
environment variable.

This is a problem for me because I'm using CVSNT and I need my cvs client to
be /cygdrive/c/Program Files/cvsnt/bin which it never sees because it finds
cvs.exe in /usr/bin instead and this is not the cvsnt client!

How do I prepend /cygdrive/c/Program Files/cvsnt/bin to the path?

Thanks
Siegfried
