[cvsnt] Re: root ACL rights

[Daniel Lapolla]

Are you using the "writers" file inside CVSROOT?

If yes, try to remove (or rename) it.

I've been using ACLs in the same way you stated, but I got rid of my 
"CVSROOT/writers" file.

Also I'm using AclMode=normal inside CVSROOT/config.

Regards,
Daniel
