Emil, I agree. What you say is most likely correct. However, for me the only difference between a working CVS install and a non-working CVS install is if the CVS repository is on a RAID 5 device or not. It seems to work great on other 'normal' drives. 'Non-working' should be qualified here...it means I can init the repository AND login...but not checkout directories. Strangely enough it works if I set my CVSROOT environment variable to K:\cvsrep. It doesn't work if I set my CVSROOT environment variable to :pserver:joeblo at cvs_server:K:\cvsrep So it seems to have something to do with the pserver protocol. ????

I didn't try CVS on a RAID partition but I really don't think that your problem comes from that. I mean if it does, it would be fundamentally wrong. Raid is a block device adstraction and from a filesystem's point of view the notion of a RAID doesn't exist, and CVS uses libc to work with files, doesn't it?

I think I've narrowed my CVS problems down to the following... It works great if I use repositories that are normal non-raided directories. It doesn't work if my CVS repository is on a logical drive (say K:\) that is RAID. I can login but when I try to checkout CVSROOT I get... Cannot access K:\cvsrep\CVSROOT permission denied. Has anybody had any luck getting CVS working with RAID?
