Beside that i have a big problem with the strict order to first upload the package and then commit/tag it. OpenOffice.org needs me 4 hours to upload. When I will not sit in front of the pc when it comes to commit/tag the server will reject me due to a timeout. Any idea if/how this can be solved?
As already mentioned, you could use ssh keys. As my /home is encrypted, I use my key without a passphrase, but you could use a passphrase and ssh-agent (if you lock your screen during your absence, nobody will be able to login to gerolde). Using keys is much more secure than password authentication anyway. Additionally, I use ssh master mode: [thomas@artin ~]$ cat .ssh/config ControlPath /home/thomas/.ssh/master-%h-%p-%r Host gerolde HostName archlinux.org Host cvs.archlinux.org HostName archlinux.org I now launch ssh -M gerolde. That creates a master connection, that all other ssh connections to the same host are tunneled through (thus the alias from cvs.archlinux.org to archlinux.org). The authentication problem remains the same, but as only one connection is established, the cvs commit and tag operations are done much quicker. I recommend to for anyone who is working much on arch cvs/git/upload via ssh.
