Hi, I don't think it is natural for a CVS-savvy user to look into the package documentation for Debian-specific changes that are not compatible with upstream. Especially when moving existing repositories from non-Debian machines. I do expect that 'SystemAuth=no' alone would prevent CVS from falling back to the system instead of CVSROOT/passwd, whatever is in charge of normal system authentication. I myself found out about PamAuth by chance :) -- Sylvain -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
