The passage you refer to is the *file system* permissions and not the
cvs chacl command permissions.
I don't belive it is possible to handle permissions in CVS on
directory level, only file level. This is because cvs deals with files
and not directories.

You can easily obtain what you want by using normal NTFS permission
settings to the repository directories for the two users.
