	You get this if you are using CVS over SSH and you have Tomcat running 
as a service. What you want to do is to set the user under which Tomcat 
runs (Control Panel ->Administrative Tools -> Service, right-click on 
Tomcat and ask for Properties, set the user account).

	Now, for the user account that will be running  Tomcat, define the HOME 
env var in it. SSH will want to create a .ssh under it, and now it will 
be able to.

	This may be in the FAQ, I am not sure.
