couple of side questions:

i've seen people mention using ssh to connect to CVS servers, 
but haven't seen any dox on the subject at cvshome.org.   i 
assume that ssh is just a substitute for rsh, but i also know 
that such 'trivial' changes can often require major surgery.

so:

1. what's involved in setting up a CVS repository that uses ssh 
for remote access?

2. is it possible to do the same thing with cvsup?


i'm looking at the possibility of setting up a distributed, 
redundant CVS archive, and using cvsup/ssh to move information 
between the machines would be sweet.
