After setting the premissions of the /var/lib/cvs directory as you did above you need to do a: cvs init as root. if you did it before go into /var/lib/cvs and try to do: chgrp src -R * chmod g+ws -R * and then try to see if you get access as a user. Type "id" to see that you are in the src group. Preben -- () Join the worldwide campaign to protect fundamental human rights. '||} {||' http://www.amnesty.org/
