I spent a few hours yesterday trying to get SSH going again. I can
login with SSH from the windows machine using Putty, but only when
I use password authentication. In order to use cvs with ssh (using
the plink program in Putty), we must use public key authentication.

Unfortunately, I can't help with the Windows side.  I'm only using
UNIX machines as clients, so Putty is something new to me :-(

erhm.. cd /usr/ports/security/putty;make install :-)

Heh!  Well, fancy that...  That's one of the side-effects of having an
SSH client in the base-system, I guess.  Thanks to DES, I never needed
Putty on FreeBSD so far :)

Putty's just a nice lightweight GUI ssh client for Windows that was ported to Unix sometime in the past 2 years.
