Re: Help with the scm cvs plugin

[Emmanuel Venisse]

The best way is to use ssh key, you'll find lot of tutorial about how to create 
them with Google

Thats good, but is there anyway to make the scm plugin or cvs itself to pass this password to the ssh so it does not prompt me for the password. I need to automate the checkout process during the build life cycle, and making someone waiting there to enter the password will make the whole process not automated. Please advice.

    When you use cvs over ssh (with ext protocol), cvs doesn't have a
    password, it's the ssh connection that require an authentication and
    we don't have the hand on it.
