[cvsnt] Re: Can I create new repository through sspi protocol?

[Trinh_Nguyen Duy]

We have worked with many projects. So, because of security, 
we used different VSS databases for different projects. 

Did you use to convert VSS to CVS before? I've got a problem when vss project 
has its own sub projects. What had I better do to solve the problem?

Trinh,

Permissions can be set differently for different modules within one
repository (and right down to the file level).  This can be done
remotely.

We moved from VSS to CVS (admittedly in a small company).  We reckoned
that CVS module = VSS project; CVS repository = VSS database.  Assuming
you have a single VSS database, you should be able to work with a single
CVS repository.  If you have multiple VSS databases, you *might* need
multiple CVS repositories, but I'd be interested to know why you need
the multiple VSS databases :-).
