[cvsnt] Restricting CVS administartion to certain users only?

[Bo Berglund]

Well,
I am only trying to check if the new guy by some accident can perform these
actions. So I tried it the way I described but failed because I am an admin.
I guess that I am safe enough then.
We really do not want to turn off the system authentication.

You list them in CVSROOT/passwd.

I don't actually see the point in not allowing administrators to administrate
the cvs server, since they can simply go to the repository and modify the
files directly anyway.  Presumably if you've given someone that kind of
privilege you trust them not to screw something up.
