Hi Richard, I'm stuck on step 5 below. How do I get to bazooka.dreamhost.com? We'll get there.... Eventually :o) Many thanks, Paul. ---------------------------------------------------------- Paul de Leeuw Computers NSW Central Coast, Australia Email: pdeleeuw@deleeuw.com.au www: < http://www.deleeuw.com.au> ABN 72 360 822 562 ---------------------------------------------------------- -----Original Message----- From: fractdev-bounces+pdeleeuw=deleeuw.com.au@mailman.xmission.com [mailto:fractdev-bounces+pdeleeuw=deleeuw.com.au@mailman.xmission.com] On Behalf Of Richard Sent: Friday, 9 March 2007 1:01 AM To: Fractint developer's list Subject: Re: [Fractdev] Paul? I use pageant to authenticate me automatically so that I don't have to keep typing my pass phrase/password every time I do a CVS operation. You can get pageant here: <http://the.earth.li/~sgtatham/putty/latest/x86/putty-0.59-installer.exe> and more information about pageant/putty is available here: <http://www.chiark.greenend.org.uk/~sgtatham/putty/download.html> In summary, do the following: 1. download and install putty 0.59 2. download and install TortoiseCVS 3. create a private/public key pair with puttygen 4. Keep the private key somewhere on your machine in a secure location 5. Upload the public key (*NOT* the private key) to your account on bazooka.dreamhost.com: i) create a folder .ssh if it doesn't exist ii) create the authorized_keys file in that directory and add your key to it as one long line (use cat or vi) 6. Use putty to connect to dreamhost for the first time through SSH. This will put a "host fingerprint" on your local machine. This only happens the first time, but you need to do that first for CVS to work. Now you should be all setup to use CVS and checkout source code from bazooka. Go to some folder and context menu in the Windows shell. You should see an item on the menu that says "CVS checkout...".
