Hi all, I've just joined the list, so sorry if this has already been asked. I'm just trying to install cvsnt, and it all went pretty well to start with - installed it, restarted, created a repository, added users etc. I'm using pserver authentication as its just me using it on my own laptop. So, I'm now trying to add my files (I've used cvs on Linux, so I'm familiarish with what to do). The directories are created in the repository, but it fails to add the files. Using WinCVS I get the error: Unable to rename file /anorakgirl/cvs/advdir/,tasklog.txt, to /anorakgirl/cvs/advdir/tasklog.txt,v for 1 second, still trying... For 10 seconds for each file, then it gives up. cvs [server aborted]: cannot rename file /anorakgirl/cvs/advdir/,tasklog.txt, to /anorakgirl/cvs/advdir/tasklog.txt,v: Permission denied Also, when I look in the repository, the file tasklog.txt,v IS there, but if I right-click to bring up properties, and click the security tab, I get an odd message saying: "The permissions on tasklog.txt'v are incorrectly ordered, which may cause some entries to be ineffective. Press OK to continue and sort the permissions correctly, or Cancel to reset the permissions" It doesn't seem to make any difference which I choose, WinCVS (or Eclipse) are both unable to add my files. I'm an Administrator on my PC and have granted Full Control on the folder I want to use for my CVS repository to all the users I can find. Any suggestions gratefully appreciated. Thanks, Tamsin
