in thread How long have you been sitting on my server?

We are using proftpd on Solaris. We have the ftp directories on a separate partition (which doesn't include htdocs) and my boss wants to keep it that way. Would it be possible to use CVS, but have the files on a partition that Apache doesn't know about?

    Hi ,

    The partition , in which apache resides can be different from that of the CVS repository partition , it is just that you could maintain the repository anywhere and build a link to any partion and cvs add files to it and cvs update when files are updated , that way the files that are added have the creation time on it , though any other parameter , $atime,$ctime might get changed when you have the file modified, the CVS could retain the creation time.
