:All this is authenticated via the ssh agent tunnel. Your private key is
:never stored on disk in an unencrypted form, and even though it's in
:memory it never leaves your home machine.
:
: home% setenv CVS_RSH ssh
: home% setenv CVSROOT you@freefall.freebsd.org:/home/ncvs
: home% cvs checkout ..something...

:and so on.
I use the above method, but be aware that the server-side of the
cvs tunnel is going to create a tree for the entire operation, including
update's and checkouts, and that /tmp on freefall just isn't big enough
(not enough inodes!) to handle it. In order to get around the problem
I added:
setenv TMPDIR ~dillon/tmp/
In my .cshrc on freefall and created ~/tmp/. It is also relatively
server-intensive so don't get update-happy :-)
