They'll also need to set LockDir in CVSROOT/config. Basically: 1. everyone needs read access to those files and directories whose files they need to be able to checkout. 2. everyone needs write access to those directories whose files they need to be able to checkin. You may also want to look into using POSIX ACLs (man setfacl for more info). Noel __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
