I have WinXP installed in C:WINDOWS with 2 accounts: Administrator and user. The second one is limited and used for main work, but I also know a password for Administrator.

EDIT: I used “Putty” to try to create a group and a [...]

I’m in a bit of a situation. We have our private subversion server that we use for development, but one of our government clients is requesting access to our commit logs so that they can get an up-to-date picture of what we’ve been doing on the system.
