See, that's part of the problem. The main user wants to have the
following:

/cvs/proj1
/cvs/proj2
/cvs/proj3
...

With all the users in those projects able to login and checkout and
commit source code. Fine, that's not a problem using SSH.

Here's the kicker.. he wants to have an "anonymous" user for each
project (with the username "proj1", "proj2", etc) for accessing each
separate repository.

Ok, so how do you setup all sorts of anonymous accounts on a per project
basis using SSH?

Thanks for bearing with me.
