Sorry to kept this up. The "" removal might
have made the difference. It is now
apparently working for 'junkcvs', but checkout is not working for
'fortworth'. Here is CVSROOT (should permissions be stricter for
users?):
[asquith@balrog txdotcvs]$ ls -l
total 16
drwxrwxr-x 3 asquith cvsadmin 4096 May 31 15:05 CVSROOT
drwxr-xr-x 3 asquith txdotcvs 4096 May 31 15:06 cvslocks
drwxrwxr-x 2 asquith txdotcvs 4096 May 31 13:48 fortworth
drwxrwxrwx 2 asquith txdotcvs 4096 May 31 13:40 junkcvs
I can checkout 'junkcvs' and 'fortworth' as 'asquith' who is member
of txdotcvs and cvsadmin. I can not checkout as 'wasquith' who is a
member of txdotcvs only.
[wasquith@balrog fortworth]$ cvs co fortworth
cvs checkout: Updating fortworth
cvs checkout: failed to create lock directory in repository
`/home/dotcvs/fortworth': Permission denied
cvs checkout: failed to obtain dir lock in repository
`/home/dotcvs/fortworth'cvs [checkout aborted]: read lock failed -
giving up
[asquith@balrog asquith]$ cvs co fortworth
cvs checkout: Updating fortworth
QUESTION:
Is the group txdotcvs not being picked up by user wasquith? Notice
that world has write permission on junkcvs.
