I misunderstood the location that is used by ssh. It appears that ssh is invoked first and then cvsd, so there is no need for $CVSDHOME/.ssh/ - just regular SSH account and $HOME/.ssh will do.

So you are using ssh to access a repository provided by cvsd? What would be the benefit of using cvsd in such a setup over directly accessing the repository over ssh (using the ext method)?

The extra protection that cvsd buys you in such a setup would be minimal IMO. It adds some authentication checks but that could also be added with proper file permissions on the repository and proper group membership.

If you want to directly access the repository over ssh, do something like this [1] on the client:
  export CVS_RSH=ssh
  cvs -d remotehost:/path/to/repository co module
On the server you just need the proper system users and the directory holding the repository.
