[sgt chaos]

Hi guys, time for another question.

I have to use CVS for work, in a windows nominated environment, and I need to setup ssh and my identity for CVS to work.....now i have done this on Wintel machines, but I am far to rusty on Unix/OS X to remember how to do this. Sop any help will be greatley appreciated.

Many Thanks

Are you saying you have to create your own new CVS repository, or do you mean you need check-in priviledges on an existing CVS repository?

Also, what do you mean by "set up ssh"? You say you've done it on Windows; but on most *nix (including OS X) there's no "set up" needed. What specifically are you referring to? Normally to get to ssh you just open up Terminal, and type 'ssh' on the command line.

Sorry I wasnt any clearer, what i meant was, that I have to check into an existing repository over a VPN and need to add my private identity key to the mac....
