RE: CVS, SSH and Passwords
In regards to my post on January 6th, I still haven't been able to get public/private key authentication to work b/w my Cygwin client and the BSD box where our CVS repository lives. Even after following these super simple instructions. For the past few weeks, I've been using the easy hack to remembering passwords with TortoiseCVS.
I'm revisiting this issue because I think public/private key authentication is necessary for Anthill to work. BTW, it was super easy to setup, but now it just hangs when trying to do a checkout from CVS. Damn security - sometimes it seems to hurt more than it helps...
