SSH Authentication for CVS

[QS CVS]

I've been trying to set up SSH on Linux based server and Linux client and 
Windows client. One thing puzzles me is that I don't know which 
authentication method I should use for CVS.

It seems to me that both PublicKey and Password authentication require 
either passphrase or password. That causes every cvs command to prompt every 
time during the execution.

I have figured out a way to bypass the password/passphrase using hostbased 
authentication method for Linux client but I haven't figured out what would 
be an appropriate authentication for Windows client. Can someone make a 
recommendation in this regards?

Another problem is that I can do cvs command from MSDOS shell using ssh on a 
Windows client but I can't seem to do any CVS commands with WinCVS since it 
complains about rsh. I have selected ssh server for authentication. What am 
I missing in the set up for SSH in WinCVS? Any help will be appreciated.

Thanks.

Howard
