The CVSNT service runs in account SYSTEM, but as soons as an operation is performed by a user command it switches to the account of the user. So what you see is probably an effect of permissions on the file system on the CVS server. One very important thing is that the temp directory used by CVSNT *must* be world writable and this is not true for the default temp dir on a windows 2000 box. So you should follow installation directions at devguy and relocate this directory outside of c:\winnt and make it 'full control' for everyone. Which version of CVSNT are you using? /Bo On Wed, 27 Feb 2002 13:49:50 +0000 (UTC), Stacy Young <Stacy.Young at sfcommerce.com> wrote: >This message is in MIME format.
