Yes, by all means log the bug. I can't
promise if and how it will be resolved but this is definitely an issue
that should be reported in bugzilla.

This is the first time I have ever heard of the "ssh" connection
method for CVS. Usually, SSH is used by configuring the "ext"
conenction method using the CVS_RSH environment variable. I also couldn't
find any information on the connection method using google.
 
I found this in relation to the ssh connection method.

http://www.tortoisecvs.org/faq.shtml#ssh
and based on this link also its clear that I should use ext. I come from
subversion world, and am learning to using CVS at my new organization,
so this is a bit confusing.

Is this a new connection method for
the latest CVS releases or something specific to Tortoise? In either case,
it is not support by Eclipse.
 
Yeah, i guess this is the easiest and quickest way for
now. 


2) Write your own plug-in that provides an ssh connection method. All you
would need is the extension point that registeres the ssh connection method.
You could just use the same classes that the extssh connection methods
use. Have a look at the org.eclipse.team.cvs.ssh2 plug-in to see how this
could be done. 

If the ssh conection method is provided by Tortoise, you probably should
log a bug against Eclipse/Platform/CVS to request support for this.


If you could second based on the above link that it qualifies as a bug
then I would be happy to file a bug/develop a patch.
