Larry,
The error message I got was
cvs [commit aborted]: could not open lock file '..../,foo.txt,': Permission
denied
If I chmod g+w $CVSROOT/dir, the problem goes away. So it looks to me that
the lock for commit is always placed in $CVSROOT regardless what LockDir is
set to.
If that's the case, what's use of LockDir?
Howard
