SSH access assumes you have a working ssh setup that lets you access the PARI server.

In this document we only explain the difference between anonymous access and ssh access.

SSH Setup:

You need to use the authorized key ssh authentification mechanism to avoid cvs to ask you for a password every time.

If rsh is not a symlink to ssh on your system you need to define the environment variable CVS_RSH to ssh.

Connection to CVS via ssh:

There is no cvs login step with ssh access. Type the following command from the shell

  cvs -z3 -d :ext:login@pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr:/home/cvs checkout pari

Then, you may proceed as usual.

Note:

when logged on pari.math.u-bordeaux.fr, use

  cvs -d /home/cvs checkout pari

to avoid network overhead.

Tips:

If for a reason or another you need to change the CVSROOT of one of your repository, you can do as follow, assuming you don't have subdirectories with different CVSROOT

Edit CVS/Root to the correct value.

Run

find . -type d -a  -name CVS -exec cp CVS/Root '{}/Root' ';'
