Info saids No: The `PreservePermissions' features do not work with client/server CVS. Another limitation is that hard links must be to other files within the same directory; hard links across directories are not supported. (This may be for pserver. I do not know if ssh is used) Also I just experimented. I can "import" /etc into CVS by root but I can not even "ci" as root locally: [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/etc# cvs ci cvs [commit aborted]: cannot commit files as 'root' Well, it does not look easy. -- ~\^o^/~~~ ~\^.^/~~~ ~\^*^/~~~ ~\^_^/~~~ ~\^+^/~~~ ~\^:^/~~~ ~\^v^/~~~ + Osamu Aoki <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, GnuPG-key: 1024D/D5DE453D + + My debian quick-reference, http://www.aokiconsulting.com/quick/ +
