Re[4]: [phplib-dev] PHPLib CVS at SourceForge From: Maxim Derkachev (max.derkachev <email protected>)

Hello Chris,

I've just solved my problem using PuTTY's plink utility instead of
Cygwin's ssh (I'm using windows as a workstation).
For those who interested, get putty & plink, then add a session using
putty, configure it, save it, and then use the name of the session instead of
the cvs's server hostname. E.g, CVSROOT would be
user <email protected>:/cvsroot/phplib where putty_session_name is
the name of the session with configured connection parameters. set
CVS_SSH=plink.
I use the configuraton with WinCVS, and it works great (in WinCVS, set
alternative rsh to plink in ports tab).

Concerning your problem.
You should first ssh to cvs.sourceforge.net (logging in to the
shell.sourceforge.net is not sufficient, cvs and shell are different
servers). It doesn't give your a shell, but it will create your homedir
at cvs server.
Then add your public key to the cvs server using your account manager at CF (if you
don't, you'll have to enter your password with any connection)
