I have some > sort of restricted shell that only allows me to use cvs. Mike, I am able to do what Dave recommended -- so you should be able to also. All I do is 'ssh -C mwagner at mysql.sourceforge.net'. This gives me access to a machine named 'usw-pr-shell2'. There I have my .ssh/ directory with authorized_keys file in it. So try changing 'mysql.sourceforge.net' to your project (of course), and give it a try. Note that Dave meant that you should run 'ssh-keygen' on your local workstation if you don't already have a '.ssh/identity.pub' on your workstation. After reading the SF Site Docs, it looks as though they even have some official system of supporting this (which I have never dealt with): http://sourceforge.net/docman/display_doc.php?docid=761&group_id=1 Which SourceForge.net hosts support the use of SSH keys? SourceForge.net project shell servers, CVS servers and the compile farm support the use of SSH. At this time, only the project shell and CVS servers support the use of SSH keys officially. It should be noted that all services which require the use of SSH are provided solely to those users who are members of active development projects hosted on SourceForge.net. If you are not a member of an active development project on SourceForge.net, this document does not apply to you (you do not have access to the compile farm, project shell servers, or write access to project CVS servers). The next section after this deals with how you can upload your 'identity.pub' into their SSH Key system. Good luck.
