1. You should establish password less connection to your linux server.
Public keys should be loaded or configured to be loaded automatically.
For putty this means that you should use pagent, for cygwin ssh they
should be placed to your home directory.
2. The error message you sent more look that there is some error in
protocol between client and server. Usually this caused by
incompatibility of client and server version of CVS. To resolve this
issue configure plug-in to use cvs.exe (cvs client) that is know for
you as compatible with your server (i.e. that is shipped with WinCvs
or other working client). Please check this page for details:

I am evaluating your pluggin and downloaded it from your website. I am
unable to connect to my CVS server from Visual Studio .net 2003 IDE. My CVS
server is on a linux box, and I'm using SSH protocol. I have set the
CVS_RSH environment variable to the ssh program on my Windows box. I am
able to use WinCVS and TortoiuseCVS to checkout files from my CVS
repository (on the linux box).

In your "Select CVSROOT, module and local path" GUI dialog window, check on
the value I entered for CVSROOT comes back with a success message (The
CVSROOT is OK).

But I'm getting an error while checking the CVS Module value. The following
is the error message:

>>>

[checkout aborted]: end of file from server (consult above messages if
any)

<<<

If I try to "Create" the module, it gives me a success message => Modue
successfully created

I am able to checkout this module from WinCVS without any problems.

Are there any preferences which I am not setting correctly? I will
appreciate if you could help me in fixing this problem.
