[cvsnt] Restricting CVS administartion to certain users only?

[Bo Berglund]

Strange,
I thought that if anything the modification of the CVSROOT files should be
protected so that only admins could do that (except history). These files
control the behaviour of the whole repository after all...

Reading your first message more carefully you're checking out CVSROOT and
modifying files there..  admin priviliges don't affect that.  There are two
ways of stopping someone modifying CVSROOT - by using NTFS file permissions or
by setting an ACL (ACLs don't affect admins though).
