           Summary: CVS task doesn't display password prompt using 'ext'
                    protocol and  jdk1.4 or higher
           Product: Ant
           Version: 1.6.5
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Windows 2000
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Core tasks
        AssignedTo: dev@ant.apache.org
        ReportedBy: mvangelder@croop-lafrance.com


Using jdk1.3.1 and ant 1.6.2 I am able to successfully run the CVS task using 
the 'ext' protocol. The ssh prompt for the user's password is displayed and 
input is accepted.  After upgrading my jdk to 1.5, I tried to build my project 
and the cvs task blocked indefinitely at the ssh prompt, but the prompt was 
never displayed and an attempt to input my password had no affect.  I upgraded 
to ant 1.6.5; had the same result.  I tried jdk 1.4.x, again same result.  I 
therefore, had to forcibly quit the ant build. Doing this left a hanging ssh 
process.  This same problem occurrs on Windows XP. So, I really have to issues 
here: jdk 1.4 and higher do not pipe the ssh password prompt back to the user 
and forcibly killing the build during the blocked cvs task causes a hanging ssh 
process.
