Authenticating cvs extssh w/o getting prompted

[gaby]

As part of our automatic builds, I have  to connect to an external server using extssh, but I cannot get it to work without it prompting the user, which defeats the purpose of an automatic build. I've used the cvspass task, I've tried to reference the password file in the cvs task, nothing works. Any ideas?
Using ant 1.7.1 on SUSE SLED11
Thanx

After much googling it seems like one must have a password-less loginset up to make both ant and (in my case) CruiseControl work. I was able to set that up following this documentation:

Hope this helps someone in the future.

Hello,

in our environment this works with putty and generated keys stored in files.
