That indicates that the ownership and/or permissions on your CVSROOT directory aren't correct. You need to have read permission in a directory to check out the files that it contains and you also need write permission to commit changes to the files in it. If you want to allow read-only users, then you also have to use LockDir= in your CVSROOT/config file to put the lock files somewhere other than in the repository since read-only users still have to be able to create lock files. -Larry Jones Talk about someone easy to exploit! -- Calvin _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
