man chmod and pay close attention to "chmod g+s" (ie setgid for directories),
then do:
     find $CVSROOT -type d | xargs chmod g+s

Subject:  Repository permission problem?




Hello!  I think I'm falling into the grey area between the FAQ and
preexisting UNIX admin knowledge, was wondering if someone could tell me
what I'm doing wrong, as I've tried the 7-8 conflicting answers I've found
online.

Problem:
When user checks something in, they now own the file/dir, not cvs group!

I am currently using:
  chmod -R 775 /home/cvs/cvsroot
  chown -R cvsowner:cvs /home/cvs/cvsroot

All cvs users are members of group cvs.

I'm running RedHat 6.2 w/ the env tweak in inetd.conf.

Any help greatly appreciated.
