[cvsnt] Latest CVSNT and Windows Server 2003?

Except that if the user is authenticated as SYSTEM then none of the other permission
items will do either. The login is simply SYSTEM in this case so there is
apparently no way to have a granular access to the repository and also the
history of all changes say SYSTEM did them all.
Not so good....

So I will at least stay away from SSH.

One issue that I know of from the list is that all users get recorded in
history as "system".  I don't know what implications that has on the NTFS
permissions but since they are coming in as system, I'd think that NTFS
permissions are moot at that point.  There are other ways to secure your
CVSNT repositories though, e.g. chacl command plus passwd & writers files.
