Hello,

i already asked on the newsgroup for cvs but got no response, perhaps my
problem is too stupid, but in any case i really need help:

i am using regularly cvs for my projects, now for the first time the
usefulness appeared clearly: an unfound bug creeped in the development that
made itself public some checkins later....

since the bug couldn't be found, an old version without the bug was checked
out and brought to the state of the old project.

But now how to check this new version in as the new main tree without merging
the differences of  the buggy version?

Now i do not know if the problems are corellated, but i cannot checkin the
project on the server i get a Permission denied every time i try a ci....
loooks like this:
? examples/done
? examples/cvslog
? examples/sim
? examples/.Simulator.java.swo
? examples/AdminListener.java
? examples/doubleArray.java
? examples/matrix.java
Permission denied

long list before, to be noted that a subdirectory example exists, but doesn't
contain all the files mentioned (neither does the examples/CVS/Entries
file)...

now i used this repository before, so i do not understand why it doesn't work
now (perhaps it is a problem due to the upgrade to a new debian distribution
made lately...)

nevertheless, connection is made through ssh, and the permissions are set
right:
(at least i think)
18:26:57 yoda:~$ whoami

18:26:59 yoda:~$ ssh erm1
18:32:00 erm1:~$ whoami

18:32:05 erm1:~$ echo $CVSROOT
/usr/local/cvsroot
18:32:10 erm1:~$ cd /usr/local/cvsroot
18:32:13 erm1:/usr/local/cvsroot$ 
18:32:13 erm1:/usr/local/cvsroot$ ll -d jSim/

18:33:03 erm1:/usr/local/cvsroot/jSim$ touch test
18:33:11 erm1:/usr/local/cvsroot/jSim$ ll test
-rw-r--r--   1 bboett   users           0 Jul 12 18:33 test
18:33:13 erm1:/usr/local/cvsroot/jSim$ cvs --version

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.10.4 (client/server)
18:29:27 yoda:~$ cvs --version

Concurrent Versions System (CVS) 1.10.4 (client/server)

so i do not understand where's the problem.....
any help would really be greatly appreciated...

used system is a debian potato
