Bo,
Thanks for the input. However, I am still getting the 'permission denied' error on K:/CVSrepository/CVSROOT
Here is some more info that may be helpful.
'realuser' is an administrator for the domain that the CVSNT server is running in.
Should 'realuser' be a LOCAL admin on the actual machine CVSNT is running on??
I do have an admin file in CVSROOT with the lines
1:>someuser
2:>realuser
3:>
I explicitly added 'realuser' (even though this user is an admin in the domain the box is running in) to this file
to see if it would allow me to import...still no dice.
Also...I given the group 'Everyone' full access to
K:\CVSrepository
K:\CVStemp (My CVS temp dir)
K:\CVSlock (My CVS lock dir
Any ideas??
