Connecting using ssh and putty's pageant key manager

Hello,

I would like WinCVS 2 to connect to a linux cvs server over ssh.
I have tried both ssh and ext protocol without success.

When using the previous version (WinCVS1.3), I used to have a 
small sshcvs.bat batch file doing the authentication via plink (that
comes with putty).
====
@echo off
set CMD_LINE_ARGS=
:setArgs
if ""%1""=="""" goto doneSetArgs
set CMD_LINE_ARGS=%CMD_LINE_ARGS% %1
shift
goto setArgs
:doneSetArgs

"c:\program files\putty\plink.exe" -ssh -i rsa-key.ppk %CMD_LINE_ARGS%
===

I would like to connect using this key, because then I don't need to
type the ssh password every time! Putty's authentication agent
(Pageant) would
store the key for me and authenticate me every time.

Where would I put a link to such a batch file with the new CVSROOT wizard?

Is the CVSNT password agent something similar to Putty's
authentication agent?


Thanks!
