Hi Christian,

Thanks for your answer.

I don't have write permission to our CVS server so I cannot putting the SSH 
key in.
So as of now in ReviewBoard there is no way to authenticate via password 
with :ext:. Is that right ?

Also I can connect to our CVS server (using :ext: or :extssh:) with other 
tools perfectly such as eclipse, jenkins, etc. without using SSH.
I would appreciate if you could add this option in the future release of 
ReviewBoard.

Thanks
