Brilliant, thanks! (unfortunately, http://www.samba.org is currently not very responsive, though, so I'll have to wait before trying). Incidentally, in case it interests people (or posterity browsing groups.google.com :-), I also found another patches/projects that would appear to be relevant to securing public CVS access: idx-chrooted-ssh (http://www.idealx.org/prj/idx-chrooted-ssh-cvs/index.en.html) cvs-nserver (http://alexm.here.ru/cvs-nserver/) Enjoy, Philip -- The mail transport agent is not liable for any coffee stains in this message ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Philip Lijnzaad, [EMAIL PROTECTED] European Bioinformatics Institute,rm A2-08 +44 (0)1223 49 4639 Wellcome Trust Genome Campus, Hinxton +44 (0)1223 49 4468 (fax) Cambridgeshire CB10 1SD, GREAT BRITAIN _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
