Huh? Putty/Pagent are Windows tools. So AFAIK there is no Linux port.
Here is my CVSROOT:
:ext:<username>@cvs.sourceforge.net:/cvsroot/cvsgui

I have done the initial checkout via cmd line. Sometimes if
ssh/CVSROOT is not configured well, sf.net responds with some
messages pointing to the error. You will only see the full message
text when on cmd line.
Doing initial checkout via gCvs is not really tested :-(


I'm using cvsnt on my unix flavored systems. It is necessary to have
X11-Ask-Pass installed to get ssh working with gCvs, but on Linux
this should be installed already. This brings up the message box for
entering your password (if you didn't already install your public key
to sourceforge).

That's not a bug, i think. rsh is only useful if you use rcmd. But
that's not the way accessing sf.net.

P.S. sorry for delayed answer, but it takes the mails at least
fife(!!!) hour to pass over to Europe.
