Since at least one other person is interested, here are the steps I went through. Two personal caveats:
* My client OS is Windows XP. * I use Pageant for SSH authentication, so it will change your authentication process if you don't. (Tip: If you end up using Pageant, and you want it to always start at boot time, add a shorcut like the following to your Startup folder: "C:\Putty\PAGEANT.EXE C:\CVS\private.ppk"). (1) Download CVS from "http://www.cvshome.org/"; and install. *** IMPORTANT ***: There is a bug in the 1-12-x codebase that keeps :ext: over SSH from working. Make sure you install a 1-11-x version. (2) Download Putty from "www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/" and install Putty, Plink, (and Pageant). (3) I've got all of the following environment variables defined: set JAVA_HOME=... set ANT_HOME=... set PUTTY_HOME=... set CVS_HOME=... set CVSROOT=:ext:<username>@<server>:<path> set CVS_RSH=plink set PLINK_PROTOCOL=ssh set PATH=%PATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\bin;%ANT_HOME%\bin;%PUTTY_HOME%;%CVS_HOME% set CLASSPATH=.;%CLASSPATH%;%JAVA_HOME%\lib;%ANT_HOME%\lib\ant.jar (4) You should now be able to run CVS from the command line e.g. D:\Project1>cvs log build.xml Or from an Ant script e.g. <cvs command="checkout -d ${name} -r ${label} ${path}" /> Let me know if you have any problems with this, in case I missed a step.

I used command-line CVS in conjunction with Putty to directly access CVS from Windows (XP), without the need for CYGWIN. If this option might be of interest, let me know and I'll provide the details.

I have the upload part working if I pull the configurations down from CVS manually, but I can't seem to get the cvs task to work correctly.
