I have thought of setting up the permissions on the CVS folder each time it is done, but we do frequent upgrades and this will be forgotten sooner rather than later, as I am only a contracter and will not be here too long after i set it up.
Not 100% sure what this rename shuffle business is, but it sounds like what greg was suggesting, ie write a script/batch file to do the work for me. Unfortunately this looks like the only solution.
