I followed this procedure to access SSH/CVS using PuTTY for the tunnel and
WinCVS for SSH/CVS access:

1) I set up a work area on my computer, to receive material I need to check out
from the Docs site.

2) I opened the tunnel using PuTTY. No problem there.

3) I opened WinCVS and clicked on Remote->Checkout Module. On the window that
opened, I entered "documentation/www/manuals" under module name, clicked
CVSROOT, and entered 

:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs

4) When I clicked OK, I got an error message that said I had to login first.

5) So then I went to Admin > Login and put into CVSROOT field:

:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs

6) Clicked OK, got a message box asking for my passphrase, put that in, clicked
OK, and got this info in the area at the bottom of the window:

cvs -d :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:/cvs login
Logging in to :pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:2401:/cvs

Then the program hung. I waited for 5 minutes or so and then stopped it. 
Did I give up too soon? Did I do something wrong again? Any clues?

I passed this information on to Louis Suarez-Potts, who then wrote to me,
"Log in first?? that is not expected behavior.  You are specifying
localhost, yes? and are using this command, effectively, " ssh -2 -x -L
2401:localhost:2401 [EMAIL PROTECTED]" ?"

To which I replied,
"In PuTTY, you mean, or in WinCVS? ummm.... I have no idea. I just put
parameters in where I'm told to put them. I've certainly never seen that
command, but quite possibly one of the programs is generating it from what I put
in."

Louis:
"Let's assume PuTTY is working and that WinCVS is doing bad things and that your
server is not at  fault. So, can you send me a netstat -an output? Do it after
Start -> Run .... "cmd"

Me: 
"How do I output the results of that command (netstat -an) to a file so I can
send it to you. It pops up in a DOS window and then goes away immediately."

Louis:
"There is no way to scroll up the window?"

Me:
"The window closes immediately, before I even get a chance to look at it."
