It depends on what connection method you're using. For a local repository or for a remote repository accessed with :ext: or :server:, CVS uses the user-ID. For a remote repository accessed with :pserver:, CVS uses a username and password. When using :pserver:, it is possible to map multiple users to the same Unix user; see: <http://www.cvshome.org/docs/manual/cvs_2.html#SEC29> If you do that, however, you're giving up the ability to use system file permissions to control what individual users can do. -Larry Jones The problem with the future is that it keeps turning into the present. -- Hobbes _______________________________________________ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs
