Suppress password in CVS ext authentication

Hi all,

Is there a way to suppress the password prompt when I do an update
using CVS? I am using the "ext" protocol in CVSROOT.

The reason why I need this is that I have an automated build process
(using CruiseControl) which uses ant to do CVS updates. And currently
CVS updates are not possible because I always get a password prompt
while running ant. And since this is an automated process I cannot
provide the password while it is running. I tried using the <cvspass>
ant task and it is correctly adding the password to the ".cvspass"
file, but it seems as if the password file is not being read for the
password.

Thanks in advance,

~T
