Hi there, CVS users! As this is my first post, I'll explain my problem briefly -- but please forgive me if this issue has already cropped up in previous postings...
The CVS repository (on a Red Hat Linux 9.0 machine) I'm administering has the following problem: whenever a non-cvs-administrative user commits a file, that file shows up in the repository as owned by that person, rather than cvs. This behaviour effectively prevents anyone else from checking out or committing projects to the repository, since (to my thinking) ONLY cvs (my cvs sysadmin user) should be writing to it. Although I've set up a 'cvsuser' group in /etc/group and added all active users to the list (NB: we have no remote users at this time), this owner/group problem still persists. Granted, I only know _some_ things about Linux system administration... Anyone ever had this problem?? And if so, how did you fix it? I feel that it's a simple fix, but since I don't know it, it's 1000 miles away at the moment... Does anyone know what the default permissions are on clean CVS repositories and their projects? Thanks for your help, Andy Clark ______________________________________________ | Andrew E.
