I just tried updating (from a remote location) a file with CVS and I got: cvs server: warning: cannot write to history file /var/lib/cvs/CVSROOT/history: Permission denied
And sure enough: $ ls -l /var/lib/cvs/CVSROOT/history -rw-rw-r-- 1 root root 0 2002-12-10 17:00 /var/lib/cvs/CVSROOT/history On another machine I have all the files in CVSROOT are group "users", and the history file is group rw. I guess I'm curious why my Debian installation has the history file not writable by normal users (or if it should or shouldn't be). -- Bill Moseley [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
