RE: [platform-vcm-dev] CVS - SSH - and Passwords

["David R Robison" <drrobison@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

I downloaded the latest version of Eclipse. I'm using cygwin ssh. When I
try to commit a source, I get the error "I/O has been interrupted"
error. I'm not sure how to configure the ext connection page to include
the password. Any idea?

David,

If you are using a fairly recent 2.1 build of Eclipse(last coupdl of
months), you can configure Eclipse to provide the external SSH tool with
the password entered in Eclipse. This can be done on the Team/CVS/EXT
Connection Method preference page. If you are using an earlier Eclipse,
you
can configure your SSH client to use key authentication. This
configuratin
is specific to the SSH tool you are using. You could also write a script
or
bat file to invoke your ssh client with the proper password and then
have
Eclipse invoke the script as its CVS_RSH command.

Hope this helps...
Michael

I am new to Eclipse and I'm trying to use the CVS integration. My server
uses ssh for authentication. I am running on Windows 2000 and the server
is
a RedHat box. I noticed that the FAQ says that ssh should be setup to
login
without a password. However, each time I try to log in with ssh (from
the
command line) ssh asks me for a password. When I use WinCVS, I am able
to
enter the password when performing cvs operations. With Eclipse, I do
not
get a popup window to enter a password.





Can anyone tell me how to set up ssh to not require a password and/or
how
to configure Eclipse to let me enter the ssh password?





Many thanks in advance.
