CVS only runs as root long enough to validate the client's username and password. Once it has done that, it switches user to run as the client user. Client users have to have write permission in the repository directories in order to create lock files or you can set LockDir= in your CVSROOT/config file to put the lock files elsewhere. -Larry Jones They can make me do it, but they can't make me do it with dignity. -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
