Use 'ssh-keygen -t dsa' and just press enter when it prompts for a password. Then you copy the .pub part of the key to your cvs server, and do 'echo id_dsa.pub >> .ssh/authorized_keys' in the homedir of the account you want to give access to.
Then you should be able to log in without a password. /N pat wrote: >Well, there are problems ... :-( This works by logging for each request, >that can be used but not so gently. > >Next is that I want to access CVS from the developement IDE (IntelliJ >IEA), so I need to generate public/private keys for the cvs access, but >don't know how :-(( > >Could someone help me ???
