CVS setup help

[Rohit Peyyeti]

Hello:

 

I need some help on setting up CVS here. I have couple of

projects configured as modules in CVS. All the project

directories are group owned by the project group.

 

And I simply add users to the project group(s) for granting 

access to the repository.

 

Is there any better way to set this up? Also, I need read

only access to certain project directories for some of the

users. How is that possible?

 

I also tried setting up CVS in read-only mode by configuring

CVSREAD environment variable. Though the files in the checked

out module are read-only but the ownership belongs to the

user. So, right now user can change the file permissions

using chmod and then commit the files to the repository. This

should not be happening.

 

How does one handle such situations? Any pointers will be

greatly appreciated.

 

Regards,
