When you try to update files with the cvs-update NAnt
task and the file is read-only (e.g. previously checked
out/update with Tortoise) it crashes with a
UnauthorizedAccessException.

Doing the same thing with read-only attribute removed
works fine.

Also, if I do a cvs-checkout all files don't have the read-
only flag set.

    Is this only when you have files with the read only attribute set on the filesystem and CVS mirriros that, or is this in conjunction with having watches enabled?

    I'm not so familiar with CVS, so I don't know about watches.

    It happens when the read only attribute is set on the
    filesystem. I just got the file from CVS with Tortoise (which
    sets the RO attribute on the file system), and then try a cvs-
    update. I did nothing else with CVS with that file.
