>I have installed VSS 6.0 When I try to run it, it tells me that the common database is corrupted with no way of fixing it, either by ignoring the message or otherwise. I can't find this as a reported bug. Anybody else experience this? If so, how did you fix it?

Have you tried selecting the Analyze & Fix VSS DB Start menu option under the Visual SourceSafe entry in your start menu? This launches VSS's Analuze.EXE with the command line parameters -f -c -d -v1 against the default VSS database specified on the command line (on my system, with VSS 6 installed on my D: drive on my NT Server, the command line reads:
"D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\VSS\win32\ANALYZE.EXE" -f -c -d -v1 "D:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\Common\VSS\data"
