why I cannot change the distribution is beyound me since it concernes 
politics/security, I'm not allowed to open up a different type of 
connection to the cvs computer for the users, cvs is the only way they 
can get the source file (no ftp, no ssh, no samba, etc)

The users can still edit some other files in the project so it is not 
only a transfer problem...

I asked for a sollution to MY problem, not to a different problem with 
how things are set up, so why not ignore why, and how and just answer my 
problem?

Is it possible for cvs to ignore certain rows in a file when comparing 
for differences so that I do not have to commit the local file everytime 
 an specific row (date-comment) in the file is changed, or fetch out 
the last file from the repository...
