I don't know the answer to that (my suspicion is it's "no") but I have a suggestion. Install Cygwin on the NT server hosting the developer sandbox, and setup the Cygwin sshd to run as a service. This will provide you with a free SSH server. Then have your developers use a windows SSH client such as PuTTY to connect to the sandbox and issue their cvs commands. It requires your developers to learn how to use the command-line cvs client, but IMHO the effort is more than worth it. This is the method that I use (I do web development with PHP on both Apache/Linux and IIS/NT) and it works great for me!

checking out to remote working directory
The dev environment I'm in requires the ability to checkout files to a working directory that does not live on the developer's machine. (The Repository machine and the machine hosting the working directory live in a data center right next to each other -- the developers are remote.) The environment is NT. We could have the developers map a drive from the remote developer's machine to the working dir but I would like to avoid that pain over the Internet. is there anyway to specify a different working dir to check files out to other than the "current directory"? david

Newbie: howto share modules
I have the following scenario: I have a subproject in CVS (a directory in a module) where I want to have some other subprojects from CVS as subdirectories. Let's say we have: The following structure: (C++ is the root module) C++/Applications/MyApp C++/Libraries/TheFirstLib C++/Libraries/TheSecondLib C++/Libraries/OtherLibs ... Where I want to have C++/Applications/MyApp/TheFirstLib C++/Applications/MyApp/TheSecondLib The reason I want it this way is because I want to be able to deploy the source code to MyApp without having to do a lot of rearranging which might break the compile of MyApp. -- Vennlig hilsen Syver Enstad ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

I discovered that having source code doesn't make up for a broken design, and that I have better things to do than to keep fixing basic things (like signal handling so that ctrl-C doesn't break things, various instances of memory mismanagement, and useful access control) and adding hooks that I needed for larger systems. Given the status quo, I can either buy a commercial system that has industrial robustness and support, or I can build it myself. In the end, the same capabilities cost just as much either way: The money goes to my salary to build it, or it goes to a salesman. If it goes to the salesman, then I get many more man-years of robustness and polish with a system that can be deployed much more quickly. >In terms of support there are no advantages to being one of the many >ClearCase users that are not also advantages of being one of the many >CVS users.

One would hope that a competent designer of quality software doesn't introduce any of these things. While it's true that most users don't use every feature of any system, it's still possible to measure the utility of features across the customer base. And companies don't usually add features to their products unless there's great demand for them. In contrast, features may be added to free software if only one user calls for them... As for whether or not a feature is confusing, RTFM. And if a feature is buggy, then the vendor isn't doing their job in the quality assurance department. If they don't provide the level of robustness that their customers demand, then they'll go elsewhere. I find it funny that you would use this particular argument to defend CVS, which itself has a number of features that are not only useless and confusing, but buggy as well. >--- End of forwarded message from [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Info-cvs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/info-cvs

Have you ever paid anyone to support CVS with the same amount of money you have pay for licensing _and_ support of ClearCase? I'll bet you would get better support for CVS than you could ever get for ClearCase. In terms of support there are no advantages to being one of the many ClearCase users that are not also advantages of being one of the many CVS users. While Rational may have more long-term dollars to put into research and development than has been or ever will be put into CVS research and development, that's not necessarily an advantage for ClearCase either. Free software does not have to fight for market share by adding useless, and/or confusing, and/or buggy features. Even truly mass-market "boxed" software doesn't necessarily have any advantage over free software, provided that the user is willing to pay the same much in support fees as they would pay for the commercial version (and I can assure you that ClearCase is very far from ever being considered a "mass-market" product of any kind! :-). -- Greg A.

The best way to do that is by setting the permissions on the repository directories so that only the people you want to be able to commit have write permission (you can only do this on a directory basis, not per file). If you still want to allow other people to read those directories (e.g., do chekout, diff, etc.), you have to use LockDir= in your CVSROOT/config file to put the lock files somewhere other than inside the repository since read-only users still need to be able to create lock files. If you don't have direct access to the server, that could be tricky; you can also use a commitinfo script to control access, but you have to be very careful -- it's easy to shoot yourself in the foot doing that. -Larry Jones Summer vacation started!

And all of our users are competent enough with ClearCase in half an hour to create and configure workspaces and to perform checkouts, checkins, merges, and version history queries. This is even if they've never seen ClearCase before. >- cannot handle interopability, yes Virginia, you must purchase or obtain yet >another tool to assist CC, and add that to your overhead activities to maintain >this tool to compensate/help out CC.

It's true that ClearCase does prefer bigger servers and more network bandwidth, but your claims are a little inflated. It doesn't need constant tuning and hardware upgrades to maintain suitable performance. VOBs store shared resources. As such, they cache any files that are checked in, plus other objects like built objects that have identical inputs (sources, build rules, environment settings, and other things). ClearCase go

How to identify the user who has modified the file
hi , I have created a repository and created the passwd file. Also i have created a directory called project. The working members of the team are guru, sam , pran. and in the passwd file i have mentioned as below guru:hnjwpfjwl23l:sam sam:perkw94322:sam pran:djkw85kdowee:sam. and the above members of the team has been called as team_sam. the directory permissions at the repository level and the below level are as follws username as sam and group name as team_sam. All the members of the team are able to checkout the modules and do updation and everything works fine. But my problem is whenever other than sam does the updation the file permissions still shows as the person who has modified the files as sam and since i have fixed the group permiison of the folder using a sticky bit , the group name remains the same. My question is how do we know that who has modified the files and when they have changed, since the User who has modified files of the repository always remains as sam. Thanks in advance for the help Sudarshan
