Description Dani Megert CLA 2004-11-08 06:31:07 EST 
3.1 M3

I use ssh2 to connect to the cvs server. My password expired over the weekend.
As a result I get a dialog (see bug 78064) for each project which is connected
to that repository.
Comment 1 Michael Valenta CLA 2004-11-08 11:55:45 EST 
Did you cancel and still get prompted on subsequent connects or did each 
connection fail after two or 3 login attempts? In the simple case I tried, 
cancellation worked as expected (i.e. no subsequent prompts).
Comment 2 Dani Megert CLA 2004-11-08 12:05:16 EST 
There were two things happening over the weekend: my password expired and the
server has moved. The dialog is related to the server move and not the password
change.

I have many (i.e. > 60) shared projects from different repositories. I hit the
synchronize button and got asked for each project which came from the moved
server. With cancel you mean cancel the job? I did not cancel since I really
wanted to synchronize all my projects (at least those were the connection could
be established).
Comment 3 Michael Valenta CLA 2004-11-08 12:13:48 EST 
That's what I suspected. During an operation, we should flag a repository that 
has failed to connect and exclude any other projects for that repository from 
the operation.
Comment 4 Michael Valenta CLA 2004-12-16 14:21:49 EST 
Not for 3.1
Comment 5 Michael Valenta CLA 2006-06-19 14:01:00 EDT 
We're planning on looking at these types of connection issues in 3.3.
Comment 6 Michael Valenta CLA 2007-04-18 21:29:51 EDT 
We didn't have time to address this in 3.3.
Comment 7 Eclipse Webmaster CLA 2019-09-06 16:09:20 EDT 
This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
