I'm very close to being able to do the same thing on a Windows box.  The 
only thing I was having a problem with was command line cvs update, and I 
got that working yesterday.  I've now just got to get all the compilers 
installed on the box I'm going to be using.  The cron facility has a 
different name under Win 2K, but it works fine via either a GUI or command 
line interface.
