The best way to do that is by setting the permissions on the repository directories so that only the people you want to be able to commit have write permission (you can only do this on a directory basis, not per file). If you still want to allow other people to read those directories (e.g., do chekout, diff, etc.), you have to use LockDir= in your CVSROOT/config file to put the lock files somewhere other than inside the repository since read-only users still need to be able to create lock files. If you don't have direct access to the server, that could be tricky; you can also use a commitinfo script to control access, but you have to be very careful -- it's easy to shoot yourself in the foot doing that. -Larry Jones Summer vacation started!
