Trying to use cvs to get a working copy of /usr/src from the
/home/ncvs of one machine to another, cvs just hangs. Top displays as
state for cvs `piperd'. I have not been able to find this documented
in the top man page. A guess: pipe reading data? In my case it
indicates cvs or ssh hanging :-( There are no data read anymore in any
case (for which top seems to print `getblk' or `RUN' during the short
time cvs works). Things remain like this until I kill cvs through ^C.
This happens a few seconds after entering the cvs command. When
I retry: the same result, but not always at the same file.
Maybe I should mention that after entering the password (for ssh) I
get: `stdin isn't a terminal'.
The solution for this problem seems to be to set CVS_RSH to ssh1. Both
`ssh' and `ssh2' produce the abortive cvs.
Both machines run ssh2 2.0.13 from the ports.
