Remote cvs access via SSH in KDevelop 1.4

[cihan esen]

Thanks for help, but i still couldn't solve my
problem.

First of all, my account on the server was already
configured to allow connection based on my ssh key.I
can do anything on cvs via ssh as long as i provide my
username and password each time i try to do something
on cvs.

I followed your advices. When i tried the command 

eval ssh-agent

linux printed 3 lines exactly as this

SSH_AUTH_SOCK=/tmp/ssh-XXXTMP3R/agent.1203; export
SSH_AUTH_SOCK;
SSH_AGENT_PID=1204; export SSH_AGENT_PID;
echo Agent pid 1204;

then i did the command

ssh-add

linux said

Could not open a connection to your authentication
agent

then i used the command

printenv

and i saw that, the two environment variables that
"eval ssh-agent" command tried to set, was not set. I
set them manually via "export" as "eval ssh-agent"
command printed.After this when i commit "ssh-add"
command, it printed a line like this

Identity added: /home/myusername/.ssh/identity
(myusername at mycomputer)

but i still got the same message on KDEvelop as
before(I'd given the message on my previous e-mail).It
seems as if KDevevelop still couldn't make the server
to resolve my username and password. For instance, i
thought that when i open an ssh-agent whenever i try
to make an ssh connection on console to the server it
won't ask me username and password but it did.

After many many tries and looking to several manuals i
still couldn't find a way out.I would really really
appreacite a little more help on this.
Thanks.
