Quoting Chuck Swiger <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
The documentation for CVS is not especially well-known for being inclusive. Are you using CVS over SSH or in pserver mode? The first case requires you to
set up password-less SSH authentication via ssh-keygen, the latter uses the "cvs
login" mechanism.
I use CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ncvs.
Is it possible to specify the password on the command line with cvs login (it
isn't secret anyhow)?
6-sec% touch ~/.cvspass 7-sec% cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/home/ncvs login Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401/home/ncvs CVS password:

This looks like you still have to type in the password from the terminal. I would like to update the source each night from a cron job. Is there really no way to do that?
With OpenBSD i can simply do:
# export [EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs # cvs co -rOPENBSD_3_3 src/sys cvs server: Updating src/sys U src/sys/Makefile cvs server: Updating src/sys/adosfs U src/sys/adosfs/adlookup.c U src/sys/adosfs/adosfs.h U src/sys/adosfs/adutil.c U src/sys/adosfs/advfsops.c U src/sys/adosfs/advnops.c cvs server: Updating src/sys/altq ^C
without the need to type in a password.
Seems i have to use CVSUP on FreeBSD..
