Apologies and thanks... So: Since CVS is evidently running as Guest (there are no entries in the event log to contradict this) and the user account specified in CVSROOT/passwd is also Guest, how can it be that CVS is able to modify read-only admin files whose ownership is Administrator:Administrators? For example, the `modules' file has the properties: -r--r--r-- 1 Administ Administ 1170 Jan 30 10:29 modules After I check it out, modify it, then commit it: -r--r--r-- 1 Guest Administ 1186 Jan 30 12:51 modules Am I missing something really obvious? The fact that the group remains `Administrators' rings alarm bells. I'm just trying to get a better understanding of what's going on here as I only have a rudimentary knowledge of Win2K and Unix file permissions.
