I am having problems communicating to my repository on a network share.  I
know it has something to do with the userid and permissions to the network
share, but I just can't figure out what my problem is.  Hopefully someone
can recognize the problem and help me out.

For all of these tests, I am trying to checkout cvsroot.  My CVSROOT is set
to :sspi:cvsserve://myshare/project/cvs

I have a directory structure that I checked out several weeks ago when I was
checking files out locally, and if I'm in that directory structure, these
commands are successful, but if I'm in a fresh directory I get the errors
that follow.  If someone can explain the reason behind this, I would also
appreciate it.


When I have the CVS for NT service starting through the system, I get the
following error:
cvs [checkout aborted]: unrecognized auth response from cvsserve: cvs
authserver: E cannot open //myshare/project/cvs/CVSROOT/config: Permission
denied

When I change the service to load through a userid, using my own network
logon (MY_DOMAIN\myuser), I get
Cannot access //myshare/project/cvs/CVSROOT
Permission denied

If I add a userid to my CVSROOT
(:sspi:myuser at cvsserve://myshare/project/cvs), I get
cvs [checkout aborted]: : Authentication failed


I have toggled between SystemAuth=YES and SystemAuth=NO.  The only entry in
the passwd file is one line: myuser:

I think this is all of the pertinent information.  If anyone can tell me
what I have set wrong that I'm just not seeing, I would appreciate.  I've
been banging my head against the wall for too long now.
