CVS access via ssh tunnel

OpenOffice CVS is accessible via a ssh tunnel. Instructions for ssh tunneling are available here: http://www.openoffice.org/scdocs/ddSSHGuide.html

Using SSH config file makes things easier. Once added the following lines to ~/.ssh/config:

Host tunnel.openoffice.org
Hostname openoffice.org
Protocol 2
User tunnel
LocalForward 2401 localhost:2401
ForwardX11 no
IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_dsa_openoffice

you can simply start the tunnel by:

ssh tunnel.openoffice.org

you will be prompted for a password, enter the password you gave when registering your OpenOffice account

cvs -d :pserver:USERNAME@localhost:/cvs co exthome/creativecommons
