Why do you want to do that ?  (ie access CVSROOT files directly)

Almost everything you need to do can be done on your checked out CVSROOT
folder.

The only reason I ever need to touch the actual repository is if a
module needs to be moved, with its history.  And that's not very common
any more as we mainly know where to put things in the right place to
start with.

If I need to manipulate the repository I use Remote Desktop to log-in to
the computer where it resides.  We don't have any Share at all that
includes the repository.


Definitely,
Richard.

While all the rest is of course correct, I think this is a bit over the
top
:)

AFAIK, often a sys admin does have (and even may need to have) access to
the repository tree. If only to the CVSROOT folder...
