I have a question about cvs...

I'm running a remote cvs and I want to connect to it using Project Builder. I've been playing around with project builder and apparently CVS is enabled but all the options in the SCM menu are greyed out except enable session. When I click enable session it asks me if I want to end the current scm session.

How do I use cvs and can I set it up to use a remote cvs? I've read the documentation on http://www.cvshome.org/ and I understand a little bit about cvs but I am still a newbie at it. Can anyone help me?

Project Builder Help has a link to the web documentation that's stored on your computer for cvs.
I don't know about integrating with a remote cvs server but I use it locally with Project Builder and it works really well. But you have to set up the cvs project before Project Builder can see it.
1. create a project in Project Builder
2. import that project into cvs
3. delete the old source files
4. checkout that project from cvs
5. open the project file (that you checked out) in Project Builder

I posted a tutorial on this at macosxhints. Check out this link.

That should get you going...

Ok, I had it working at one point and then things got messed up so I deleted the .ssh directory on both machines (server and client) and tried to start over again. I followed the directions step by step and I still get asked for a password. I created the key, copied it to the server and set up the paths and variables. I have cvs working with the password (ie. I can type cvs checkout dir and I get prompted for a password... I enter it and I have the source) I guess the easiest way to describe what happens is to show you what I do:

bash-2.05$ eval `ssh-agent -s`
Agent pid 743
bash-2.05$ ssh-add
Identity added: /Users/cjf24/.ssh/id_dsa (/Users/cjf24/.ssh/id_dsa)
bash-2.05$ ssh tcflynn@queen.mcs.drexel.edu
tcflynn@queen.mcs.drexel.edu's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
tcflynn@queen.mcs.drexel.edu's password:
Permission denied, please try again.
tcflynn@queen.mcs.drexel.edu's password:
Permission denied (publickey,password,keyboard-interactive).
bash-2.05$

Any ideas? (I did copy the id_dsa.pub to ~/.ssh/authorized_keys2)
