No cvs does, really. ssh is used as a tunnel over which the cvs protocol travels. cvsnt on Win32 has an integrated plink client (:ssh:) which takes care of the client side. Server side ssh is tricky on Win32.. It's really a Unix thing (basically you end up running cygwin and a port of openssh). If your server is in an Active Directory you should be able to setup your mac so you can kinit to it and use :gserver:, which is extremely secure (I'm hoping they make this easier in Tiger... ideally OSX would be a full AD member and would have a ticket already). Mac cvsnt clients can also use :sserver: which is almost as secure as ssh. For your windows clients use encypted SSPI - within your local active directory domain they'll use kerberos anyway and will be as secure as you're going to get. > The documentation I'm using for setting up the ssh on the client side is > this http://www.bsdconsulting.no/wincvs-ssh/ but how about for a mac? The > puTTY FAQ says: Don't bother with outside Win32 - Unix machines all come with a perfectly good ssh client and server anyway. Tony
