I am using the LockDir parameter to avoid giving all cvsweb users write permission to 
my repository files.  Cvsweb can work because its impersonation matches the 
permissions on the repository.  The annotate feature does not work.  I have determined 
that this is because cvsweb uses the "cvs server" command and streams protocol to it.  
When operating in this mode, the cvs program does not parse the config file and so 
does not pick up the lock dir parameter.  It then tries to create locks in the 
repository directory.

Is anyone aware of a version of cvswebnt that does not work in this way, or of any 
other solutions to this problem.  Ideally, the cvs command would obey the LockDir 
command.

Thanks,
-Jeff
