Hi Ate,

I had an issue in getting it to work as well. I'm not sure what fixed it.
Anyhow here were my steps outlined below:

1) Window > Preferences > Team > CVS > Extssh Connect Method > Key
management Generate DSA Key > Save private key and Export Public Key
2) Click Apply and Closed Pref Dialog
3) Re-opened pref dialog again > Load existing key > Apply again.
After that I'm prompted for my key store passphase instead of the minotaur
password (during a commit.)
Bugger though I just closed and re-opened Eclipse and the setting is back to
straight password.

So next I try this:

Disconnect and Rename to "_old" any projects using the connection (or delete
if possible)
Discard the connection
Close and Restart Eclipse
Create the connection again
Check out a new copy of the project ... run maven eclipse ... etc
... made some file changes ...
Closed Eclipse / Reopen (to verify the prompt on commit)
Now prompted for id_dsa passphrase on commit.

I'm not sure that helps you. It was buggy and I think the connection
properties were cached either in memory or on disk which is why I did the
close/reopens and the fresh checkouts to new projects. Anyhow maybe it'll
help.

-TR
