Hi. I have a small problem that I'm hoping there is an easy solution to. I'm setting up a CVS server that our engineers use to collaborate on code with our customers. If possible I'd like to do all access control with file permissions rather then repositories. I've setup a directory structure like this: c:\repositories \temp \lock \cvsroot \CVSROOT \cust1 \cust2 It's important that cust1 NOT know that cust2 exists on the server (and vice versa). The way I attempted to do this was to create a group per customer and give full permissions on their module directories and on all the directories about that give *only* traverse permissions. From a permissions standpoint this seems to do what I want, however CVS chokes because it can't stat the \cvsroot directory. Is there a way around this? I would like it if instead of choking it just continued on it's way since they actually do have all the permissiosn they need in \CVSROOT and \custX directories. Thanks for any help and for such a great project. ADam.
