Re: Help with the scm cvs plugin
Thats good, but is there anyway to make the scm plugin or cvs itself to pass
this password to the ssh so it does not prompt me for the password. I need
to automate the checkout process during the build life cycle, and making
someone waiting there to enter the password will make the whole process not
automated. Please advice.

Re: Help with the scm cvs plugin

You don't need admin access.
create public and private key on your machine
copy the private key under your .ssh directory
copy your public key under you $HOME/.ssh on the server

The best way is to use ssh key, you'll find lot of tutorial about how to create them with Google
