Make sure that SYSTEM also has full rights to that directory, since cvsnt does some small things as that before the impersonation takes effect (although I didn't think that included anything with the locks??). If you need a reference on NTFS permissions to use with cvsnt, I have my setup documented at http://www.cvsnt.org/wiki/SetAcl >Second question: Is there any way to use sserver in WinCVS?

You can use sspi over the single 2401 port, if you have all NT clients than that is recommended. sserver or ssh are good too. Personally I use sspi for my work server (all within the internal net though) and I have ssh enabled to Linux at home. The difference would be encryption over the wire, and if you need none, authentication, or the entire session encrypted. >Comment: Congrats on an excellent project.

I'm not sure what you meant about Subversion having too many dependencies--it seems like it's an interesting up and comer, although still a long way from prime time (last time I saw it, anyway). >_______________________________________________ >cvsnt mailing list >cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook >http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs Regards, Glen Starrett
