When you mount a CVS filesystem that is connected to a remote repository through a pserver connection, you provide all server settings in the New CVS wizard. After you first successfully log in to the server, your server settings and password are stored in the .cvspass file. These settings are then referenced every time you run a CVS command. When you log out of the server, the information is erased from the .cvspass file.
The CVS Connection Manager enables you to manage the content of your .cvspass file. The CVS Connection Manager lets you change your password, log out of current connections, and create new ones.

You can also access the connection information for a CVS filesystem by right-clicking its root node and choosing Customize. For CVS command-line filesystems, the server settings are located in the Profile tab of the customizer. You can also right-click the filesystem's node and find the Login and Logout commands in the CVS commands submenu. For built-in CVS client filesystems, server settings are located under the Server Settings tab of the filesystem's customizer. |
To establish a new connection to a remote repository:
Once the IDE successfully logs in to the server, the dialog box is dismissed and the connection is listed in the CVS Connection Manager.
