The server's on a Solaris box, so for this to work, you'll have
to make the directories setgid, so that new subdirectories go
into the "cvs" group instead of the primary group of whoever
created them.  So in your case, it'd look more like this:

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea.
