That won't work. extnt does not handle encryption except where it's
inherent to the protocol (ssh and sserver).
eclipse should have a flag to enable encryption on the client - the
equivalent of using cvs -x from the command line. This isn't something
extnt can help with - it's up to the client to initiate the encryption
using the protocol.
Actually thinking about it even that may not work work with extnt binary
as it would have to know the moment the client requests encryption and
start using it... however without the help of eclipse it's a non-starter.
