This is the CVS interface to assorted
administrative facilities.  Some of them have
questionable usefulness for CVS but exist for
historical purposes.  Some of the questionable options
are likely to disappear in the future.  This command
<EM>does</EM> work recursively, so extreme care should be
used.
</P><P>

On unix, if there is a group named <CODE>cvsadmin</CODE>,
only members of that group can run <CODE>cvs admin</CODE>.
This group should exist on the server, or any system
running the non-client/server CVS.  To disallow
<CODE>cvs admin</CODE> for all users, create a group with no
users in it.  On NT, the <CODE>cvsadmin</CODE> feature does
not exist and all users can run <CODE>cvs admin</CODE>.
