SSH connections to the server that houses our CVS repository are painfully slow. Once connected everything is fine. It's just the authentication part that takes forever. I have no idea why this is so, but I have to live with it day in and day out. Lately I've been wondering if there was something I could do to avoid reconnecting every time I perform a CVS command. One thought that came to mind is running a SSH proxy thingy on my local box that would remain connected to the CVS server and forward commands. I would then set of CVSROOT to point at localhost. When I executed CVS commands they would get executed on the remote CVS server. Another way to think of this is as a sshd daemon that runs on one machine but forwards everything to a different machine. Note that the -L forwarding option of ssh does not fulfill my needs because it forces me to reconnect/reauthenticate. Does anyone know of a such a SSH proxy thingy or a different solution to my problem? _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota Help beta test TCLUG's potential new home: http://plone.mn-linux.org Got pictures for TCLUG?
