By the way: is this the "SYSTEM" group?
I currently have in fact "SYSTEM" with full control permissions for the
F:/CVSRepositories directory and below (inherited). Not the F:/ root dir
though... Might try if adding it to the top level F:/ helps later
(although it's still strange that it did work for the cvs guest user
(read-only access)).
Anyway, back up running again now! Yay!
