What is so difficult of typing "tunnel" [1] in one terminal window and
using "plain" cvs in another terminal.

The whole point of tunneling is that it is fully transparent.

[1]
$ alias tunnel
alias tunnel='ssh -2 -x -L 2401:localhost:2401 [EMAIL PROTECTED]'

When you say ftp is easier, than this is not because of the tunnel, but
because of cvs itself.

(or maybe I got you wrong and you don't mean the tunnel itself, but the
administrativa until your key is uploaded?)

? The tunnel is ssh.

IIRC scp requires an account on the target system. This won't happen.
