There may be case sensitivity in the spelling of both or only the login name. Anywy, adding a new file CVSROOT/admin and adding your login to that file on a single line will probably allow you to be accepted as an admin. I tested this yetserday on a domain connected CVSNT server and it worked right away: First I was not allowed like you even though I am an admin on the local server. Then I added the admin file and for safety restarted cvsnt. After this I was allowed to add users... /Bo On Fri, 30 Aug 2002 12:19:17 -0700, "Zazueta, Robert" <RZazueta at academyart.edu> wrote: >OK, I received a suggestion that said this may have something to do with me >not having local admin rights, but I have local admin rights.
