You have the default domain to the domain, so it will always look for DOMAIN\cvslocaluser unless you tell it otherwise. You need to alias the user to MACHINE\cvslocaluser if you want to override that. ------------------------ The first thing I tried was to do this by editing the passwd file. I replaced cvslocaluser with 3RAPPL01\cvslocaluser then tried but I still had the error. But now after finding the disk permission issue I understand the way it works and I just tested again with the local user and it works fine. So I am going to revert to this local user now to keep things tidy (noone can use this account to access the disk via the network). /Bo
