I would not do this at all, because it limits the ability for you to sett access priviliges inside the repository using the NTFS file permissions for users and groups. For pserver this might be OK but for SSPI it is definitely not and the setting is server global! When you use pserver (or better sserver) you should really alias all cvs logins to some special account. This way the users do not need to expose their domain passwords to the insecure pserver transfer mechanism at all. Their CVS login is then valid ONLY for CVS and it is a much more secure system. See here for advice on how to do this: http://web.telia.com/~u86216177/InstallCVSNT25.html#PserverUsers /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden)
