This is really a question about ssh rather than cvs.  Can you ssh from
your machine to the server without using a password?

If not, run ssh with the "-v" option to help debug the problem.  What
does it say?

Does your ssh key have a passphrase?  If so, create a new key without a
passphrase.

Are either of your .ssh directories (client or server) or any of the
files contained in them group- or world-readable or -executable?  If so,
get rid of those permissions.
