You could try getting commitinfo to call a quick script to check on who's
committing stuff into the repos...

Subject: Read-only local (ssh) access


How do I manage to give a certain user a read-only access only for the
cvs-repository?

When I set up the file-permissions to only grant him read (and x for dirs)
he can off course read all files by hand; but he cant checkout with cvs,
because cvs wants to write a lock-file in the directory.
  In the cederqvist manual, it says that read-only access is only
specifically implemented for pserver, because it is not needed in other
methods where the users permissions is set with eg unix file-permissions.
But this won't work, since I have to give him write-permissions in the
directory, and thus total control!
