Didn't CVSNT in the past use the local CVSAdmin group?  That seemed a heck
of a lot more straightforward compared to what we have in build 72 and build
73.  I'm glad CVSNT isn't using domain admins anymore, because there is no
way I can get the IT dept. to add me to such a powerful group as I am but a
lowly Domain User.
