Hi, I used File monitor utility at my cvs server to see what blocks cvs to
access the repository files. I try for login and got it successfully. Then I
try  "cvs ls -R" and throws that "rep/CVSROOT: no such file or directory".
But at server, when I looked at the console of filemon, it didn't complains
of any blocked access to file/folder. Its result column has "SUCCESS", while
its PATH column has "C:\cvsnt\cvs.exe". It didn't show me that which file it
is accessing when I run the command "cvs ls". So, what did u say? One more
thing: how can I assure that my cvsnt service is running as SYSTEM account,
plz Help? And if it is running as SYSTEM account then how can i stop it to
run as SYSTEM.

million of thanks!!
