To all who have commit privileges:
SunSITE.dk (our CVS host) have just upgraded their OpenSSH
installation. This is GOOD news. However, there is a subtle little
difference with the latest OpenSSH, and that is by default it does
_NOT_ use a 'authorized_keys2' file.
We currently have both a 'authorized_keys' and a 'authorized_keys2'
set up for XEmacs CVS committers. Right now, anyone using a version 2
key won't be able to access the repository via 'ext'. (Norbert, this
is the problem that you are seeing)
This is a trivial thing to fix, but I want to test it before
unleashing it on the rest of you (not that you'd notice anything).
So, at 2003-05-16 09:15 (GMT+10), CVS will be closed to 'ext' access
for 5 to 10 minutes.
I'll post a followup to this once thing s are back to normal again.

Unfortunately it isn't. :-( I'll immediately log a support request to
the SunSITE.dk boys and girls.
What's happening:
The new OpenSSH doesn't understand our environment settings
that we put in the authorized_keys file.
What we _can_ do currently:
Do any _read-only_ CVS actions via anonymous pserver access.
What we _can't_ do currently:
Anything requiring write access via ext (xemacs user).
Workaround:
I can still do write operations on the repository, but I have
to do it manually from my own account on SunSITE.dk. This
means that if you _absolutely must have something commited
now_, I can do it for you.
Just send me the patch and I'll scp it to SunSITE.dk, apply it
to my local checkout there and commit the changes.
Hopefully, SunSITE.dk can give us a solution quickly so I don't need
to spend the day in Denmark. :-)
Oh, and if anyone has any suggestions, I'd love to hear them.
