I'm trying to add a script written in Ruby to my CVSROOT files as an admin script, but it's coming back with permission denied when it tries to run my script. How do I change that do allow it to run without manually setting the exec bit within CVSROOT each time? Anyone know if this is a problem in CVS also or just CVSNT? Just my setup maybe? (or probably, since I haven't seen this reported before).

It's just when the admin files are rebuilt that it doesn't set the perms. Same thing happens for .pl or no extension files. I'm using 2.0.51 on FC2. -- Glen Starrett
