Re: question about :local: access to repository on Windows box (USERNAME -- ?)

2001-01-09 Thread Michael Peck

I'm not exactly sure what you mean here.  If the repos is :local:, then
it's not possible to log in.  Period.

If you want to track who is using it, as you had in the subject,
%USERNAME% works as long as the user actually logged in (problem for
Win9x, because they don't require login).

After that, you put correct permissions on the repository so that only
allowed people have access.  I guess that's the closest thing to a login
when using :local:.

If this isn't what you meant, then please explain again.

 Hello everybody.

 I'm sorry, but i have not found yet an answer to one important
 question: how one can log in with personal user_name to the `:local:'
 repository. It's so important, because we will keep the repository
 under Windows (not on UNIX box).

 If you have any idea or a "how to" link, write me, please.
 Thank you

 Best regards, Alexei Lyubimov

 PS: It seems, that in Cederqvist it is nothing about too :(

True, but if there are file permissions (there won't be for
Win3.11, but will be for WinNT, if it's Win9x, then I think
it's possible to circumvent any local file permissions),
then the access to the CVS repository is based on the file
permissions.

That's what groups are for?
