Yes you need to choose a CVS implementation for Windows and install
that. I think the last one I used was cvsNT but I am sure there are others.

Yes. Ant does not include CVS, it is a separate product. You can get
it from <http://savannah.nongnu.org/projects/cvs/>.

On Windows, "CreateProcess ... error=2" generally means that the
executable was not found. Make sure that the directory containing
cvs.exe is in the path when you run Ant, or provide the full path to
the executable in the <cvs/> task.
