hi,

I have installed SSH software from www.f-secure.com

I think it was something like F-Secure SSH 5.2 for 
Win95/98/ME/NT4.0/2000/XP Client

It is a nice grapfical SSH client both for terminal use and filetransfer
and it also contains commandline ssh2 software that CVS needs.

To access CVS I first set it up with these commands

set CVS_RSH=ssh2
set CVSROOT=use...@cv...:/cvsroot/htmlparser

username = your sourceforge username

In an empty directory I then can give CVS commands such as

cvs chekcout htmlparser

It asks for your password to sourceforge

This retrieves the latest  fileversions.
Check the CVS commands in some handbook you can find on the internet.
The manual I found is called Version Management with CVS by Per Cederqvist 
et al.
perhaps from http://www.cvshome.org
