Depends. cvs doesn't require ssh, but a number of cvs sites might require
ssh to let you in.

the CVS_RSH environment varialbe tells cvs what program to run for "rsh".
Typically I use:

setenv CVS_RSH ssh

But it's not needed by cvs itself..

You can get the source for packages (the patches, etc) by grabing pkgsrc.
It is on ftp.netbsd.org in the /pub/NetBSD area. From it, you can
re-compile cvs so it won't need the security set, and you can also compile
ssh.

Take care,
