I've been trying a method to use CVS with SSH using a middle machine as a stepping stone to cvs.eu.openbsd.org.
4.6 ----- current ----- cvs.eu.openbsd.org For regular ssh this works ok to other machines. CVS doesn't seem to like it. The symptom is the message: can't create temporary directory /tmp/cvs-serv29515 No space left on device CVSROOT is 'anon...@anoncvs.eu.openbsd.org:/cvs' CVS_RSH is 'ssh' The connection to the middle machine succeeds: debug1: Authentication succeeded (publickey). but it appears that ssh_config on the client (4.6) is somehow wrong for the connection onward to the cvs server. Host anoncvs.eu.openbsd.org Port 22 User anoncvs Compression no HostKeyAlias anoncvs.eu.openbsd.org ProxyCommand ssh -vv 10.10.10.1 nc %h %p Host net5501 Hostname 10.10.10.1 IdentityFile /home/foo/tunnel-rsa User foo Can/should that be done using netcat? The FAQ covers direct connections, and mentions pservers for firewalls, but then also mentions that pservers are mostly phased out. http://www.openbsd.org/anoncvs.html#WHICH Should a SOCKS5 proxy be used instead? What is the correct way to get a connection all the way through? /Lars $ cvs checkout -P -rOPENBSD_4_6 src OpenSSH_5.3, OpenSSL 0.9.8k 25 Mar 2009 debug1: Reading configuration data
