Greetings, I am trying to completely lock down HEAD, but leave a BRANCH open for READ ONLY access using cvs chacl command, but it seems if I lock down HEAD, then my BRANCH gets locked down as well, even if I create an acl that is supposed to allow READ access on the BRANCH. For example: AclMode is set to normal in my CVSROOT config file I ran cvs chacl -R -r HEAD -a noread,nowrite,nocreate,notag,nocontrol cvs_test/ I ran cvs chacl -R -r TEST_BRANCH -a read,nowrite,nocreate,notag,nocontrol cvs_test/ I then tried to checkout cvs_test from the TEST_BRANCH, but it returned an error stating I cannot read cvs_test If I allow read access on HEAD, then of course I can checkout cvs_test from either HEAD or the TEST_BRANCH, but that defeats the purpose of trying to completely lock down HEAD. Please advise. I am running CVSNT 2.5.03 Build 2382 on Windows Server 2003 with SP2 Thanks for your support, Terry
