Then why even bother with remote access via CVS? If that one developer wants to work on files on some other host then they can easily copy them over to it as necessary, and back again when they're done. CVS is not a file distribution mechanism. CVS is not a networked filesystem. Use the right tool for the job! :-) > You're probably right, though I'm not sure what you mean by > accountability (I'm not a native english speaker). "accountability" is that which allows you to hold the real person responsible for changes. Accountability is impossible without an equal level of authentication (to make sure you have the right person), and integrity (to make sure the person in question is actually responsible for the changes). The three A's are the primary components of a trusted computing base. Privacy is the fourth leg of security. (indeed with cvs pserver there's no guarantee of integrity either, which is why you end up with even less than no accountabilty) -- Greg A.
