wincvs with ssh question: cannot check out files

[Chip Upsal]

When trying to attach to a cvs server using wincvs (v 1.3.11.1) with ssh
authentication I get the following errors:

cvs checkout Test

cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `'"ssh"' is not recognized as
an internal or external command,

' from cvs server

cvs checkout: warning: unrecognized response `operable program or batch
file.

' from cvs server

cvs [checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)

***** CVS exited normally with code 1 *****



Any ideas out there?

Are you aware that you need an external SSH client in order to use CVS over
SSH (common choices are for example PuTTY/Plink or OpenSSH)?
If so, you will need to specify the path to the SSH client exectuable on the
SSH options dialog, accessible via the General tab of the Prefrences dialog.
You could only skip this step if your SSH client executable is called
ssh.exe and is on the PATH.

Note however that recent releases of CVSNT (which is the CVS client that
comes bundled with WinCvs) introduced native SSH support without the need of
an external SSH client. Future versions of WinCvs will likely include
configuration options for that new protocol.

Hope this helps.
