I use TortoiseCVS and on I checkout I see In F:\Temp\CVS_Test: cvs -q -x update -d -P CVSROOT=:sspi:w2kwg:/Test -x indicates encryption, right? >If you're really paranoid you can use sserver which is a pserver >session encrypted in an SSL tunnel - pretty unbreakable unless the >client machine is compromised. Is this easy to achieve? If not I'll trust you (saying sspi is secure) and stay with sspi :-) However, I have 2 questions left: 1.) Is there a way to use sspi with a "keyfile" or something similar instead of the login-password? (Our LAN-computers are behind a firewall, so our login-passwords tend to be dumb and short and I guess this makes them easy to crack) 2.) I have to move the CVS-files (and program) from one computer to another. So the computername will change. Is there a smart way to change all the entries in the CVS/Root - files on our computers? Thanks a lot, Ralf
