-<strong>Anoncvs: rsh vs. ssh</strong>
-<br>
-By default, the CVS client uses rsh to talk to the CVS server.  Many
-of the CVS sites no longer support rsh for security reasons or a local
-problem like a firewall or imperfect protocol emulator such as slirp
-may prevent you from using rsh.
-The alternative is a to use a "secure shell" connection using
-<a href="http://www.openssh.com/">OpenSSH</a>.
+By default, the CVS client uses ssh ("secure shell":
+<a href="http://www.openssh.com/">OpenSSH</a>) to talk to the CVS server.
 
 <p>
-Once ssh is installed, one sets the environment variable
-<var>CVS_RSH</var> to point to ssh (typically
-<strong>/usr/bin/ssh</strong>).  If your local site prevents you
-from connecting out to port 22 (which ssh defaults to using) use port
-2022.  
+Many of the CVS sites no longer support rsh for security reasons.  Local
+problems like firewalls or imperfect protocol emulators such as slirp may
+also hinder rsh usage.  However, if rsh is desired, one must set the
+<var>CVS_RSH</var> environment variable to point to rsh
+(typically <strong>/usr/bin/rsh</strong>).
 
 <p>
-Do not be tempted to turn on compression since CVS already compresses.
-Use something like the following in your <strong>$HOME/.ssh/config</strong>
-file.  Note that not all anoncvs servers allow ssh connections on
-port 2022.  Also note that most anoncvs servers no longer accept
-the <strong>none</strong> cipher as it is disabled in recent
-versions of ssh for security reasons.
+If local policy prevents outgoing connections to ssh's default port of 22,
+port 2022 may be used in its place.  Note, however, that not all anoncvs
+servers accept ssh connections on this port.  Furthermore, most anoncvs servers
+no longer accept the <strong>none</strong> cipher, as it is disabled in
+recent versions of ssh for sercurity reasons.  Also, do not be tempted
+to turn on compression: CVS already compresses.
+
+<p>
+One could specify something like the following in the
+<strong>$HOME/.ssh/config</strong> configuration file to avoid the pitfalls
+and restrictions mentioned above:
 <pre>
 	Host anoncvs.ca.openbsd.org
+	    Compression no
 	    Port 2022
