Hi Yes this is what I did. I had default access set tp 'p' in aclconfig, then I tried the lines below to give my user admin access. It seemed to work ok and my access file has the following line: d:ALL:ALL:44103F!p: However, as soon as I turn default access to 'a' it says I don't have admin rights, even though the line above is still present in the 'access' file.

Attached Incidently, I had to create a blank file called 'access' in my CVSROOT as the file did not exist. When I checked in aclconfig it said it couldn't access the file so I created it. It seems to be that this file is just completely ignored and the default permissions are always used.
