Assuming you are using CVSNT (which this list is about) how do you connect to the server? Are you using pserver or ntserver protocols? If you use pserver then you can change the user by logging in as another login name if yyou alias this name to a different NT user. But only for new checkouts, after the checkout is done your username for the created sandbox will be cached in the CVS directory below the sandbox. This cached name will be used for all operations on the working file set.
With ntserver you cannot change the login at all. You will be the one who logged on to the workstation when it was started. /Bo -----Original Message----- From: Karl Herman [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: den 20 februari 2002 15:15 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [Cvsnt] Use different Author than what I logged in with How do I login with one username (for Example: Admin) and commit a file using a different Author of kherman. I tried settting an environment variable, LOGNAME, to kherman (as mentioned in the winCVS help files). But when I commit a file, the Author being used is still Admin. Am I doing something wrong? How do I accomplish this?
