[cvsnt] upgraded acl settings...

[John Cole]

Brian,
  Thanks, that got it.

Now on to a related topic, setting acl's with the new syntax.  I want to
make a branch read only, so in a directory where I have the branch checked
out, I issued the following command:

cvs chacl -r V2_5 -u default -m "2.5 has been locked" -a read

Then I edited a file and committed it, and it allowed me to commit :-(  What
is the correct format to make a branch read only for everyone?

Thanks,

John

if you are on linux/unix, use this command from your CVSROOT:

find . -name fileattr.xml -exec rm {} \;

On windows, do a search using the search function in the start menu
starting in the CVSROOT for files called "fileattr.xml". Then just
highlight all the results and delete them.

The server recreates the files when you set new ACLs, but not having a file
is the default.
