Description jcatchpoole 2005-04-15 13:44:28 UTC
As discussed in issue 56195, ssh tunnel access to the cvs repository does not
use public_keys, in contrast to the info in the doc at the URL above.  Pls
update the doc accordingly.  Thanks.

Lowering priority.

Jack, The docs for using Cygwin is generic and is present in all sites 
(whether they use or not). What you are asking is a document specific to 
NetBeans' use, right? 

Assigning to Sripriya to research into this a bit.

I don't know.  All I know is that the help doc on netbeans.org describes a
process that doesn't work on netbeans.org, and that does not seem ideal.

Or you want me to remove the whole writing about the key generation, let me 
know what the chnage should be then i can go ahead and edit them as same.
