+      <question>I'm running on Windows, and Continuum can't log in to my CVS repository! What's going on?</question>
+      <answer>
+        <p>
+        You're probably running the CVSNT client, or another application based on it, like TortoiseCVS. CVSNT stores passwords in the registry,
+        rather than the ~/.cvspass file. You'll need to issue the following command manually (but only once), with the appropriate information filled in:
+        </p>
+        <source>
+cvs -d :pserver:account@cvsserver:2401:/rootfolder login
+        </source>
+        <p>
+        Also, note that the login will only be saved for the particular user who typed it. If you're running Continuum as a service, double-check the user
+        it is running as, and make sure that you run cvs login as that user.
