You're right Glen, the commitinfo hook could be used for this. The script is invoked with the first parameter containing "/repository/module[/subdirectory/...]", and a list of files being committed within that directory is supplied on stdin. Kim, you need to write a commitinfo script as discussed in the cvsnt documentation that checks whether the CVS_USER environment variable matches one of your two authorised users, and if not, checks whether the restricted files are present in the supplied data. If they are, then your script should return a non-zero value to prevent the commit from proceding, and return 0 otherwise.
