Hi, Can you run CVS from just one of the servers and have both US and India teams use that server?

I have CVSNT installed on both the servers. The time in India is 8.5 hrs approx. ahead of US. There are developers working in both the countries checking-out the files from the servers of their areas. Since both the developers are working in the same project, we used to synchronize the files in both the servers with the help of File Synchronization software. The problem with these softwares are that they sync based on time stamp. So if a person has modified a file "test.txt" at 10:10 AM in India, after 10 mins. another person in US modifies the same file from his server. Now both the file are different in versions. At the time of Sync the file that has been modified at the Indian side is always replacing the file modified on the US side. This is bcos the File Sync software always compares the timestamp of both the files and finds that Indian time is greater than US time so it does that way though the file modified on the US side is the latest. Is there anything the CVS can do to solve this problem. thanks and regds SNM _______________________________________________ cvsnt mailing list cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs
