CVS certificate authentication

I have Ubuntu CVS server running and the users access the repositories from Eclipse with LDAP credentials. I'm asked to do a certificate kind of login to CVS from eclipse along with ldap credentials. For this, I recommended changing the group permissions of CVS repo or disabling such users who are not allowed to access repos, but the idea of doing so didn't grab much interest of developers. Does anybody know how logging to cvs with some sort of certificate along with user crede开发者_StackOverflow社区ntials(ldap) via eclipse and the users who have no certificate are not allowed to connect?.

Thank you!


Maybe look into setting up CVS with Stunnel? Stunnel can do the certificate verification for you.


If you use cvs over ssh you can do it in two ways.

The simplest way is to simply enable public-key encryption only (i.e. disable password). Though the certificate is no longer managed by the a certificate authority.

Another approach, though more complicated is to use the gssapi-with-mic support on SSH within Eclipse. This will allow you to use another mechanism (namely your certificates) to authenticate the connection to the remote server.
