Can I create an acl to prohibit writes to all files in a directory except one, without specifying every file individuallly? I tried by setting the following: "freya" is the top level module "coderepository" is the directory in questinon "coderepository_current.sql" is the one file which I want to remain writeable in this dir. acl1= cvs rchacl -a read,write,create -u mygroup freya acl2= cvs rchacl -a read,nowrite,nocreate -u mygroup freya/impl/sql/sqlServer2005/coderepository acl3= cvs rchacl -a read,write -u mygroup freya/impl/sql/sqlServer2005/coderepository/coderepository_current.sql This did not work. Should it? Acl's 1 and 2 work fine, but acl 3 does not. 2 appears to prohibit 3 from working. I do not think I can use wild cards in an acl can I (i.e. dir\*.sql)? This directory (coderepository) has about 6 .sql files. Do I need to prohibit write access to each of these separately? Thanks for any help Mark
