I guess my concern is if cvs is running as root, will the ownership of the files 
within the repository be root when running locally, but the user when logging in 
remotely.  For example, if Joe commits a file when logged on directly to the server 
box (in which case cvs will not change user to Joe, but rather do its thing as root), 
will Sally be able to check it out remotely (where cvs is changing user to Sally 
before doing anything in the tree)?

Perhaps the first question is, does a "change user" occur when running locally?

Thanks so much,

Neti

Since you're not changing anything about the executable itself, it will
have no effect whatsoever on local users.
