My client (who should hang their head in shame) is still using VSS. I'm trying to setup a Continous Integration Server (CCNET) and failing miserably. When I invoke the command line instance "ss.exe" it picks up the user name from either the NT logon or the ssuer env variable. So far so good. The problem is that once you enter the password that it prompts for it declares that the user doesn't exist.
In this case I've created a user ccnet with a password ccnet and all the variations of the username I've tried (ccnet; \dev-edc\ccnet; \ \dev-edc\ccnet) have failed. Is there something clever (or very stupid) I'm missing here? Another format to specify the username. ccnet is sourcesafe only user - but I have tried the same with regular NT Domain user. The machine is on the same domain as the source safe database and the gui launches without any prompting. I've seen this page: http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/asxkfzy4(VS.80).aspx and can't see anything. Feeling like an idiot in Ottawa BTW I know this is not VSS mailing list - but I'm at a loss as to better place to ask this question. Sorry for the off topic post. Cheers Mark Levison
