CVSNT is NOT CVS. You CANNOT migrate from CVSNT to CVS - attempting to use a CVSNT repository on CVS may result in irreperable loss of data. CVSNT is available for Linux - I suggest you use CVSNT for linux instead. Please post questions about CVSNT to the CVSNT newsgroup not this CVS newsgroup: http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt or news://news.cvsnt.org/support.cvsnt > > .....which means that you can't use 'normal system > permissions' to control > > access to various parts of the repository. > > Are you referring to 'lsacl' commands and the like? > Do you mean the AIX command 'lsacl' or the CVSNT command 'cvs lsacl'? CVS does not have a 'cvs lsacl' command - that is CVSNT specific. I believe Larry was talking about the 'lsacl' command (like in AIX) - an operating system command not a CVS command. > Windows & Linux. Can you suggest me a Linux client and a > Windows client?

Note: TortoiseCVS has many features that are CVSNT specific (eg: revision graphs that show mergepoints only works if you use CVSNT server and client). Regards, Arthur Barrett
