Dimitris Glezos reported getting similar problems with the 'transif' user.


actually wait, he's not in the web group so shouldn't have access that way, but as a translator he should be using transif, am I right in that?

OK, sorry, this was me forgetting that the user might not be in 'cvsfedora'; I presumed she was and didn't check. Problem should be solved now, thanks.
