Details:

Just don't get it.

I've tried two different CVS clients for Windows to connect to the repository
and both failed though I did fill in all the necessary fields with the data
given on this site.

The first - TortoiseCVS-1.10.4 - was constantly giving messages like

cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `Unable to open connection:'
from cvs server
cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)

An ssh-key I generated with Puttygen, registered it and then added it to
Pageant. 

The second - SmartCVS 6 - was doing all right until the very moment of
connection to the repository - it simply canceled at the middle of the process
without any notice or any further action.

I used the same ssh-key. 

I've tried links:

cvs -z3 -d address@hidden:/web/fsfe co

cvs -z3 -d:pserver:address@hidden:/web/fsfe co

cvs -z3 -d:ext:address@hidden:/web/fsfe co fsfe

and other.

Both applications are as user friendly as they might be. 

What am I doing wrong?

Please reply.
