Hi,

Apardon my ignorance regarding the different protocols and CVS in general,
but documentation is a bit scarce with respect to secruity implications
excpect for the pserver protocol which is considered highly unsecure.

How secure is SSPI? Is it just used for authentication and after that the
actual transmission of commands and file contents is open?

What is "best practice" configuring CVS access over the open Internet
without a VPN?

Thanks,
