Use ssh-agent (you're probably running it already, since most distrosinclude it by default in your XSession) and add your SSH key to it by using ssh-add. Then type your passphrase. Subsequent ssh invocations will not askyou for a password anymore.If you want to automate some of the above, see my blog entries at [1] and[2] for more information. mvrgr, Wouter[1] http://uwstopia.nl/blog/2006/08/password-hell-gdm-ssh-gnome- keyring[2] http://uwstopia.nl/blog/2006/08/password-hell-part-ii
For OSX users, as GUI frontends to ssh-add, ssh-agent and the usual CLI suspects, these can be handy:
SSHAgent: http://www.phil.uu.nl/~xges/ssh/ SSHKeychain: http://www.sshkeychain.org/ SSH Tunnel Manager: http://projects.tynsoe.org/en/stm/download.phpI run these in the background, and SSH checkouts etc., even those via a tunnel like OpenOffice.org, are a single command.
BTW, Ross, since we all need to checkout new working copies, do you want us to space it out in some way, or is a combined mad rush on the SVN server OK?
