I am not very knowledgable about CVS, but does the following indicate that the tree has been locked so that an author can commit and should I try back later, or is it a configuration error?

(Updating FPC 1.1)

cvs server: Updating fpc/install/demo/os2
cvs server: failed to create lock directory in repository `/FPC/CVS/fpc/install/demo/os2': Permission denied cvs server: failed to obtain dir lock in repository `/FPC/CVS/fpc/install/demo/os2'
cvs [server aborted]: read lock failed - giving up freebsd#

It means that the permissions are wrong for that directory. However only root, and the owner of that directory (Tomas Hajny) can change those.

It only bothers anonymous users (the group permissions are ok), and happens when new dirs are created.

I have fixed the permissions.

Thanks for the quick fix.

Remember the missing FreeBSD make targets in the 1.1 RTL? Here we go again in the FCL... :-)
