      CVS plugin version 1.6
      Tortoise CVS

      We have a lot of legacy projects that are stored in CVS. We use Windows in house and SSPI to authenticate. I am almost able to get a working setup with Jenkins but I have one missing piece - checking out from cvs.

      Conceptually our setup:
      CVS Module structure:
      /ThirdParty/...
      /Applications/...
      /Libraries/lib1/
      /Libraries/lib2/

      I cannot use the current CVS plugin because it doesn't support SSPI, so I downgraded to version 1.6. With this version I use the legacy mode to checkout, because I need the directory structure to stay intact. This works and everything checks out, but then it appears to error looking for the changes. There is no CVS folder created at the root of the project structure and that's where it executes the command, so it dies not finding any changes.

      Console log:
