I got it to work. The group I was trying to use was a distribution list and not a security group. Once the group was upgraded to a security group, I was able to commit as expected.
I'm not sure if its possible or not to check that attribute in code when a group is selected, but it would be nice to popup a warning if its a distribution list and not a secruity group. -Adam On Oct 29, 3:42 pm, "adam.c.main" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I uninstalled VisualSVN Server and reinstalled it.
