Re: [1.7] RCS - co -l fails if *,v not owned by user -

I get a permission denied error.
In my case, the RCS directory is on samba.

It seems to fix it if in conf.h I change
#define bad_b_rename 1

The flag makes it delete the target(*,v) before renaming the work file
(,*,v -> *,v)

How about if you just remount using the "acl" flag instead of "noacl"?
