[news.eclipse.platform] CVS Repositories view reports "Folder does not e

[focusrsh@xxxxxxx (Carl Dreher)]

I'm new to Eclipse and trying to follow the tutorials in the O'Reilly
"Eclipse" book by Steve Holzner.  Everything was going nicely until the
CVS section.  This is on Eclipse 2.1.3.

I created a simple project (one Java class) and checked it in by right
clicking on the project in Package Explorer and then selecting
Team->Commit.  Everything appeared to work and there were no error
messages in the CVS console view.  Looking at the CVS directory directly,
I see all the files, so they ARE there.

Then I switched to the CVS Repositories view, where I see the repository
with Head, Branches and Versions.  This is where things blow up.  Clicking
on any of those three produces and error dialog box that says "Folder does
not exist remotely."  In theory, I'm suppose to see the project I checked
in.  I've tried this lots of different ways, including checking-in and
committing only a single file, with the same result.

Anyone?

PS - I'd love to deep-six CVS for Visual SourceSafe, which holds
everything else I've ever done.  Is there a connector yet?  I did a search
but came up empy handed.
