Hi !

Rather new to CVS usage (let alone setting up a server..)
I'm using the pserver protocol (access from both Linux and Windows machines)
with impersonation with the following password format:
    usera:encpassworda:localuser
    userb:encpasswordb:localuser
So all access rights/permissions are the same on NTFS level for all users.
Now, is it possible to set permissions for files/directories on the CVS user
name level instead of using the NT user names? Is this kept in CVS files
somehow or is the only security supported on the file system level itself ?
What happens with set permissions when you move the repository (to another
machine or to another operating system)?
Should I really make a login account for each CVS user on my machine?
Can users themselves specify who can edit their files, or only the
administrator?
How is your practical CVS repository security setup?
I know, lots of questions...
All advice welcome!

Koen
