Under your instruction, I tried several times on changing group but all failed. So I listed my whole process as follows to check: When setuping the cvs, I had used some group commands. 1. useradd -d /cvsroot cvs 2. chmod 771 /cvsroot 3. useradd cvspub 4. usermod -G cvs cvspub I added passwd/writers/readers in /cvsroot/CVSROOT/ as root. So I had the checkout problem which I submitted. Then I tried to change the group as you suggested: chgrp -G cvs /cvsroot Still didn't work right. Then usermod -G cvs sam chmod g+s /cvsroot/ No matter what I tried, I couldn't checkout the moved repository from the former cvs PC. All I wanted was to remove the former cvs repository to a new home, red hat 7.0 host PC. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] workspace]# cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot login Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/cvsroot CVS password: [EMAIL PROTECTED] workspace]# cvs -z3 -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvsroot co dmtxxzd-u-boot cvs server: Updating dmtxxzd-u-boot cvs server: failed to create lock directory in repository `/cvsroot/dmtxxzd-u-boot': Permission denied cvs server: failed to obtain dir lock in repository `/cvsroot/dmtxxzd-u-boot' cvs [server aborted]: read lock failed - giving up [EMAIL PROTECTED] workspace]# ls cvs-problem dmtxxzd-u-boot ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# ls /cvsroot/ -l total 20 drwxrwxr-x 3 cvs cvs 4096 Oct 27 09:52 CVSROOT drwxr-xr-x 5 cvs cvs 4096 Oct 26 03:35 Desktop drwxrwxr-x 15 sam cvs 4096 Oct 26 04:48 dmtxxzd-kernel drwxr-xr-x 25 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:57 dmtxxzd-u-boot drwxrwxr-x 14 sam cvs 4096 Oct 25 14:11 lite_dw-kernel [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# ls /cvsroot/dmtxxzd-u-boot/ -l total 424 -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 82853 Sep 9 04:50 CHANGELOG,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 15577 Sep 9 04:50 COPYING,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 8653 Sep 9 04:50 CREDITS,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 7832 Sep 9 04:50 MAINTAINERS,v -r-xr-xr-x 1 sam cvs 6555 Sep 9 04:50 MAKEALL,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 43100 Sep 9 04:50 Makefile,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 112867 Sep 9 04:50 README,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 1359 Sep 9 04:50 arm_config.mk,v drwxrwxr-x 139 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:57 board drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 common -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 5550 Sep 9 04:50 config.mk,v drwxrwxr-x 24 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 cpu drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 disk drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 doc drwxrwxr-x 3 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 drivers drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 dtt drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 examples drwxrwxr-x 7 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 fs -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 1361 Sep 9 04:50 i386_config.mk,v drwxrwxr-x 16 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 include drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 lib_arm drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 lib_generic drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 lib_i386 drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 lib_m68k drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 lib_microblaze drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 lib_mips drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 lib_nios drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 lib_ppc -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 1385 Sep 9 04:50 m68k_config.mk,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 1556 Sep 9 04:50 microblaze_config.mk,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 1356 Sep 9 04:50 mips_config.mk,v -r-xr-xr-x 1 sam cvs 1581 Sep 9 04:50 mkconfig,v drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 net -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 1390 Sep 9 04:50 nios_config.mk,v drwxrwxr-x 3 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 post -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 1387 Sep 9 04:50 ppc_config.mk,v -r--r--r-- 1 sam cvs 1784 Sep 9 04:50 readme,v drwxrwxr-x 2 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 rtc drwxrwxr-x 9 sam cvs 4096 Oct 27 08:58 tools [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# ls /cvsroot/CVSROOT/ -l total 108 drwxrwxr-x 2 cvs cvs 4096 Oct 26 03:36 Emptydir -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 493 Oct 26 03:36 checkoutlist -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 692 Oct 26 03:36 checkoutlist,v -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 760 Oct 26 03:36 commitinfo -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 959 Oct 26 03:36 commitinfo,v -rwxr-xr-x 1 cvs cvs 364 Oct 27 09:52 config -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 563 Oct 26 03:36 config,v -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 753 Oct 26 03:36 cvswrappers -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 952 Oct 26 03:36 cvswrappers,v -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1025 Oct 26 03:36 editinfo -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1224 Oct 26 03:36 editinfo,v -rw-rw-rw- 1 cvs cvs 2031 Oct 27 09:54 history -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1141 Oct 26 03:36 loginfo -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1340 Oct 26 03:36 loginfo,v -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1151 Oct 26 03:36 modules -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1350 Oct 26 03:36 modules,v -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 564 Oct 26 03:36 notify -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 763 Oct 26 03:36 notify,v -rwxr-xr-x 1 root cvs 24 Oct 27 09:50 passwd -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 649 Oct 26 03:36 rcsinfo -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 848 Oct 26 03:36 rcsinfo,v -rwxr-xr-x 1 root cvs 14 Oct 26 03:55 readers -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 879 Oct 26 03:36 taginfo -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1078 Oct 26 03:36 taginfo,v -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1026 Oct 26 03:36 verifymsg -r--r--r-- 1 cvs cvs 1225 Oct 26 03:36 verifymsg,v -rwxr-xr-x 1 root cvs 9 Oct 27 09:02 writers [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# cat /cvsroot/CVSROOT/writers sam root [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# cat /cvsroot/CVSROOT/readers sam anonymous [EMAIL PROTECTED] /]# Where did I go wrong?
