1. Please respond to the list instead of directly to me... 2. The readers and writers files are OK to use to control the access on the whole repository, but if you want something more fine grained, such as allowing different permissions on the different modules then you can do either one of: A) Set NTFS permissions as appropriate to the module folders (and files and subfolders) in the repository itself. B) Use the cvs command chacl to set permissions individually on files in the repository. With chacl you can also set permissions to individual branches in the files, this is of course not possible with NTFS permissions. The advantage of A) is that you can use AD usergroups to set the permissions and then they will be obeyed as managed in Active Directory without special cvs handling. The advantage of B) is that it can be done via cvs, you don't have to be a domain administrator to do it. It also allows permissions down to branch level. But I don't think you can manage any kind of user groups this way. /Bo -----Original Message----- From: LJhumun [mailto:ljhumun at sil.intnet.mu] Sent: den 31 mars 2005 11:23 To: Bo Berglund Subject: Re: [cvsnt] cvsrepository access rights Dear Bo Yea i have created the repositories, as follows: /cvsrepo/repo1/ /cvsrepo/repo2/ /cvsrepo/repo3/ PLease help me how to set permission in those directories, if i am connecting with SSPI protocol.
