So what about if I want a user mapped to the LocalSystem account? This doesn't work: user::LocalSystem "Brian Smith" <brian-l-smith at uiowa.edu> escribió en el mensaje news:3C8942B9.6080407 at uiowa.edu... I'm not a :pserver: expert. But, doesn't the passwd file contain entries like this?: cvs_username:cvs_password:os_username If you leave off the last part (os_username), then my understanding is that CVS will assume that it is the same as cvs_username. For example: bob:aw34ca3:bob bob:aw34ca3 bob:aw34ca3:billy The first line and the second line work exactly the same. For the third line, you need to have an OS user named "billy" for bob's pserver account to work correctly. But, that is just my vague recollection of something I read about something that I never use. So, I could be wrong. Please correct me.
