In older CVSNT versions the permissions had to be stored on the RCS file. 2.0.58 broke that link and 2.0.6x breaks it still further. > We're using either Cygwin CVS client or GNU CVS client. > So you mean that there are interactions between the client side setting > , p.e, *ntsec* for Cygwin CVS client and the server side settings, like > the CVSNT environment variable. In 2.0.58 the server will obey the setting as well as the client, which works most of the time but has a nonzero chance of causing problems which is why only the client does it in the recent builds. >>Another way is to force the user the server runs under to be the same. > > Please correct me if am wrong, but you're saying that all users accessing the server should do it > with the same user account name on the server side. You can force the server to run as a single user.. this makes security easier as you can lock the directories down.. it also makes permissions problems easier to deal with. Tony
