Looking at options for setting up an internal project management portal. Our remote CVS server isn't meant to be publicly viewable and requires SSH key authentication to connect and disallows regular password auth - is there any support for this in the module?

Eventually the CVS server will be moved over here onto the same machine and the issue will probably be moot but in the meantime it would be good to know.

Actually, the way this module mostly works is that you install the xcvs/* scripts into the hook scripts invoked by your CVS repository itself. Those scripts just need to be able to connect to your Drupal site's database. So, your drupal site doesn't have to talk to your CVS server over SSH or via http auth. You just need to make sure the site where your CVS server is running can connect to your Drupal site's DB.

Hope that helps. Feel free to reopen if you have any questions.
