Thanks, I'll try that. More notes: I'm new to CVS. I'm trying to use Tortoise from another machine with sspi, but haven't gotten it to work yet. On the server, I set up a Windows account for each user. I uses the cvs passwd command to assign passwords (the Windows accounts don't have passwords). All accounts are administrator. I also used cacls to add permissions to the cvs folders (temp and repository). When I set CVSROOT=:sspi:User at Server:/cvs/archive I can log in, but if I do something like cvs ls it can't create temp folder (I haven't turned off simple file sharing yet). But if I set CVSROOT=:sspi:Server:/cvs/archive (note no user), I can login using any password, and I can then 'cvs ls' Is this a case of local vs remote (even though I'm doing all this on the server in a command window)? Like if I give it a user, it 'goes remote' but if I leave the user out, it 'goes local'? Dave A. On Fri, 29 Oct 2004 06:53:53 -0700, Rick Genter wrote: >I had to deal with this not too long ago.
