I've been fighting this problem for too long now. Hopefully, someone
can provide some insight. I'm trying to setup an encrypted connection
between Eclipse and a CVSNT server.
Client: Eclipse 3.0.2 (actually IBM RAD v6) on Windows 2000.
Server: CVSNT v2.0.58d on Windows 2003 with Cygwin/SSH (tried CVSNT
2.5.01 previously with the same results). Under the Compatibility tab,
I have all three compatibility options selected for generic non-cvsnt
client.
Symptoms: I can connect to the server via SSH from the command line.
However, when I try to setup a repository connection from Eclipse/RAD
using the extssh option, it returns the following message:
Error validating location: "Unknown response received from cvs server: "
Thoughts? Alternatives? Is Putty a better solution than Cygwin?
Thanks in advance for any pointers.
