I am pretty sure this has nothing to do with LFN issues, you might cross check that when running rcs on a DOS6.xx machine without LFN. I vaguely remember having problems with RCS on networked drives because NW rights differ in a subtle way from DOS rights. Under on a local drive, this works: echo "Hi" > foo attrib foo +r ren foo bar You end up with a write protected file bar. On a NW drive, this fails because write protection includes renaming, thus it *is* forbidden. Your failure (well, RCS's ;-) may occur on another place, but in a similar context. I'll download the RCS sources and have a look at them.
