The CVSNT Password Agent seems to take care of things after an initial password entry. But, it's not using the key files... -----Original Message----- From: Hermanski, John Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2004 1:42 PM To: 'Glen Starrett'; cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: RE: [cvsnt] Re: Using plink for secure connection from CVSNT to a LinuxCVS Repository Yes, why not? It works!!! I know that I tried it in one of my many attemtps to get things going - I got back "command not found". But I probably had CVS_RSH or CVS_EXT set to "ssh". It looks like it's internal to cvsnt, though. There's a ssh DLL. So, looks like I'm finally off and running. One last question - how do I get ssh to pick up my private key? I tried putting it in the cvsnt directory, and in my home directory. Again, I know the keys work using Putty or Plink. Thanks a lot for your help, John Hermanski -----Original Message----- From: cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org [mailto:cvsnt-bounces at cvsnt.org]On Behalf Of Glen Starrett Sent: Wednesday, June 02, 2004 1:01 PM To: cvsnt at cvsnt.org cvsnt downloads at march-hare.com @CVSNT on Twitter CVSNT on Facebook Subject: [cvsnt] Re: Using plink for secure connection from CVSNT to a LinuxCVS Repository Hermanski, John wrote: > I'm try to use CVSNT, going from a Win 2K system to CVS repository on a Linux box, using ssh via Plink. > > TortoiseCVS works fine.

CVSROOT would be ":ssh:jgherman at servername.com:/repospath". It also takes advantage of any keys stored in pageant and you can force ssh ver 2 if necessary with :ssh;ver=2: for the protocol (if memory serves).
