Glen, It seems that the InstallationTips (http://www.cvsnt.org/wiki/InstallationTips) page is the first and only documentation many people reads when thye're just beggining with CVSNT (myself included). Section 4 (Directory security and permissions) states that SYSTEM should be granted full control permissions on c:\cvstemp, but it says nothing about c:\cvsrepo. Perhaps it would be appropiate to make explicit the fact that SYSTEM should also have full control on c:\cvsrepo; this would avoid many people get stuck with their first attempt to do a checkout. Would it be ok if I make this addition to the page?
