Okay I found out the problem and it appears it was me all along!
It was a case of ITFM, as in Ignore The F*cking Manual :-)
I was running the server through xinted but did not include the -i flag.
So all is well and I apologise for being frustrated with the project. I am
looking forward to working with subversion and gain the benefits it has over
cvs.
Thanks for all help,
Pep.
