pserver with impersonation works for me only in the absoultely latest cvsnt beta release. pserver without impersonation means that cvs.exe runs under the account that's running the 'cvs' service. This means you can not have per-user access control based on filesystem permissions. The latest cvsnt beta release has access control lists which allows you to have per-user access control without using impersonation. Because pserver doesn't encrypt passwords very well, I suggest that you turn SystemAuth=no and make your CVS users have different passwords from their domain passwords. The instructions at devguy will eventually contain all of this information. <Simon.Hall at transwareplc.ie> wrote in message news:OF519F57F5.DA898B88-ON80256B22.003312AA at transware.ie... > > Hello, > > I am wanting to enable pserver on cvsnt and wincvs clients.
