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 :-) -Matt :Cheers, :-Peter Matthew Dillon Engineering, HiWay Technologies, Inc. & BEST Internet Communications & God knows what else.
