Hi Duy,  I have created a user on server machine (NT 4.0) named "cvsuser"
and it is in administrator group. Then, I create a user with same name
through "cvs passwd" command. One thing to note here is that I have created
user in cvs when I installed first out-dated version (i.e. 2.0.5). After
upgrading, I didn't then create this user again (i assume that my user will
retain, am i right??!!!). I think user is not invalid uptil yet, thats why I
logged-in through this user successfully.

Any more thoughts??

Hi Raheel,

Which user did you login with? Did user has rights on the directory?
I think the problem is that the user didn't have permission on repositories.

Hi Glen,  I did enable the impersonation. I did login successfullly from
remote site. But still it didn't show me the result of "cvs ls -R". It
complains:

cvs [server aborted]: Cannot access /test2/CVSROOT: No such file or
directory

Then, I initialize a new repository with name "test" with impersonation
enabled. Restart the service, get logged-in. But still i didn't get the list
of modules/files in my newly created repository "test"; it throws same
error.

Please ... any thoughts Or should I revert back to an out-dated version;
2.0.4..........huh!!!
