ssh is a single socket protocol. If you can ssh through your firewall then
you can use scp. You can even tunnel other ports over the single ssh
connection (e.g. X).

CVS isn't a network protocol. You generally run it using remote shell tools,
in the CVS manual it allows you to specifify how with the CVS_RSH evrionment
variable.

r* tools are bad. Do you need them?
