Using eclipse over ssh with pserver [message #163523] Wed, 02 August 2006 15:35 Go to next message

Hello,
I am new to java and new to eclipse. I need to access a cvs repository
over ssh with pserver. I can login using plink and pageant and can get
access to the cvs repository but cannot use it as part of eclipse. I know
of the plugin pserverssh2 but unfortunuatelu I need ssh1. I assume I can
change the sourcecode of pserverssh2 and possibly use maverick api for an
ssh1 implementation but would need a couple of pointers on how to do this.
Either that or someone could lead me in the right direction. Someone?
Anyone? Please.
Regards,
Neuralsea

I've never heard of anyone using pserver in conjunction with ssh... I've
always seen them as alternatives to each other. If pserver is running,
then that's your login mechanism to CVS on the server, without any
regard for ssh. If ssh is available, you can use it to access the
server and then CVS is available to you.

Are you asking for a method to _tunnel_ the pserver path inside the ssh
pipe? If so, I'm still at a loss as to why. Again, if pserver is
available on the server, then you don't need ssh on your client to
access CVS, whereas if ssh is available on the server then you don't
need to bother with pserver to access CVS.

I'd suggest simply using pserver alone inside Eclipse, because
everything you need to make a pserver connection is available already
with little configuration needed. Once you're satisfied that it works
that way, I'd suggest delving into making the ssh alone work via Eclipse
, just for the sake of the additional security.

I'm still surprised there is a plug-in out there that combines pserver
and ssh in some way. That sounds to me like combining ssh with the
basic unix login prompt. Not trying to flame... just surprised and
confused by the concept.
