CVS TASK - login

[Minds Work <mi...@gmail.com>]

Hi
Is there a way to login in a CVS repository with the CVS task  passing
the password as a String instead of passing it in a file (the
.cvspass)?

Have you looked at the cvspass task? This still uses the .cvspass file, but 
it allows you to provide the password so that you can log in for the first 
time from the Ant script.
 http://ant.apache.org/manual/CoreTasks/cvspass.html
 If you're running on Windows, though, there's a known bug that is 
documented on the above page.
 You could also stick the password in the CVSROOT (:
pserver:username:password@host:/path).
