RE: Logging into a remote CVS repository.

[Bulgrien, Kevin]

Set up and use SSH key-based authentication instead of password
authentication, then use a key-agent on your client computer.
This is not "session" oriented, but it "just works".  I am sure
you cannot authenticate "per session" since that is not how I
believe client-server CVS works.  I presume that you are using
the :ext: method even though you did not say that.

Subject: Logging into a remote CVS repository.

Hi,
I use a remote CVS repository tunneled through ssh. Currently,
for each CVS command I issue, I have to type in my password.
I don't want to use ssh key based authentication either. Is there
a way I could login to the server and do all my cvs activities?
To paraphrase, can I authenticate for a session instead of each
command?

Thanks,
Senthil.
