I've run into the same problem recently while attempting to implement Continuum at my current client's site. I've had no problems with Continuum at other sites but this particular security/authorization issue is causing issues. They are not running CVS but instead SVN, using the Apache2 Web DAV plugin and SSPI modules, to limit access (even read-only) to people who successfully log in to the domain etc. This overabundance of security is making things difficult -- don't ask me why dev teams cannot see each other's code!
So my proposed workaround is to set up another SVN instance on another port that is wide-open and read-only, and then limit access to that instance in the Apache conf so only that machine itself can access the SVN. I'm not positive this will work, as it is still being discussed and has yet to be implemented, but that's the best idea I've come up with thus far. I'd assume you could implement something similar.

Hi Thierry... Thx for your answer, but the Upload POM is not an option!! Because when you do that continuum does not update the pom.xml file when someone modify the file and commit the changes on CVS. Besides, the POM upload works only for a single projects without modules. Continuum is doing a great job in our company, in my opinion Continuum is an application with great potential. I can't believe that our problem does not have any solution!!!! How does anyone else that has a secure CVS manage to add projects to Continuum? Regards, Rodrigo.
