You don't add users to CVS. You add files and folders to CVS.... What you possibly refer to is using the cvs passwd command to add a user *login* to cvs. This is described in the CVSNT documentation (the helpfile). This will add user logins to CVS, but only for the (insecure) :pserver: connection protocol. With this you can set a different cvs password for the pserver users compared to their domain login password. You can also alias a CVS login to a single real user account on the domain using cvs passwd command. But still all of this is *only* for the :pserver: protocol. All other protocols use the existing user accounts. CVS users are just ordinary system users, so these are added by the system administrators (IT department) in the normal user administration ways used by your company. Note: By managing the CVSROOT/readers and CVSROOT/writers files in CVS you are able to define which system accounts will be given access to the CVS system and also define these accounts for readonly or full access. And you can use the cvs chacl command to fine grain the user access down to individual branches in single files. The cvs chacl command can use account names and also group names as arguments. /Bo -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org]On Behalf Of Remo Liechti Sent: den 7 november 2005 08:42 To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: [cvsnt] Add User Hi there It's a trivial question. I did not find anything in the documentation(but I think there should be somethingin there but I missed it): How do I add a new user with the rights of another user? Example: Add User "New User" to the CVS with the right of user "defaultUser" Thanks Remo ____________________________________________________________ This message may contain legally privileged or confidential information and is therefore addressed to the named persons only.
