Follow-up Comment #2, sr #106349 (project administration): Hi,
I have tried using ssh-agent as you have suggested. Following instructions here, http://www.gatsby.ucl.ac.uk/~iam23/compnotes/passwordless_ssh.html I have created an <code>authorized_keys</code> file. <pre> [eads chestnut]$ cat ~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub | grep savannah.nongnu.org > ~/.ssh/authorized_keys </pre> Next, I'll run ssh-agent over a bash shell and do a cvs update. It should ask me for my password, which I am guessing is normal. <pre> [eads chestnut]$ ssh-agent bash [eads chestnut]$ cvs update Enter passphrase for key '/home/redfox/.ssh/id_dsa': </pre> Now when I try cvs updating once more, it asks me for my password again. <pre> [eads chestnut]$ cvs update Enter passphrase for key '/home/redfox/.ssh/id_dsa': </pre> Obviously, I'm not doing something right. Please help. Thank you.
