Quibble time: *if* you run cvs on a network you're sure is secure and everybody on it can be absolutely trusted (to the point where you'd be perfectly comfortable giving the root password to anybody who had an actual need for it), pserver is usable. It serves to prevent mistakes. It may be slightly easier to set up than rsh, or it may not be. However, if there is any shadow of doubt, then all pserver gives you is anonymous access, since anybody who wants to do anything not directly traceable to themselves can easily use somebody else's identity. Given a valuable code base, and employees, I'd figure that the danger of having a disgruntled employee is there, and I'd want to use something more traceable than pserver. -- Now building a CVS reference site at http://www.thornleyware.com [EMAIL PROTECTED] _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
