You might want to create your ssh2 key to avoid pain (I recently went into this -painfully- because tunnelling was getting on my nerves) I'm assuming you are into ~/.ssh on your computer that you have a .ssh directory in cvs.apache.org ssh-keygen -t dsa ssh-keygen -t rsa cat id_rsa.pub id_dsa.pub > authorized_keys2 scp authorized_keys2 [EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/.ssh if I did not forget anything (assuming you have CVS_RSH=ssh in your env variable) ssh [EMAIL PROTECTED] should just log you directly. then chmod 711 ~/.ssh chmod 600 ~/.ssh/* Unix/ssh expert can correct me if I'm wrong.
