Hi, all: I just set the CVS users permission exactly as http://www.cvsnt.org/wiki/setAcl <http://www.cvsnt.org/wiki/setAcl> and also set different access level on each module we have on the repository. If the user have R/W permit on a module, he will have no problem to check out/browse to the deep folder of that module. However, if the user only have Read-only right (Read & Execute, List folder Contents, Read), he will have trouble to do both. I would hope the user should be able to check out (I set it Check out read only option for them) the module, just can't edit. I got the following message when the CVS user tried to check out the Read-only permission Module. I don't know what I did wrong. CVSNT 2.08 running on Win 2000, SSPI protocol, wincvs client. Thanks for your help. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------------------- cvs -x checkout -P "ATS SmartVision" (in directory C:\CVS_test\Sandbox6) cvs server: Updating ATS SmartVision cvs server: failed to create lock directory for `D:/StandardProducts/CVSrep/VersionControl/ATS SmartVision' (D:/StandardProducts/CVSrep/VersionControl/ATS SmartVision/#cvs.lock): Permission denied cvs server: failed to obtain dir lock in repository `D:/StandardProducts/CVSrep/VersionControl/ATS SmartVision' cvs [server aborted]: read lock failed - giving up cvs checkout: in directory .: cvs checkout: cannot open CVS/Entries for reading: No such file or directory ***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****
