CVS needs to know if you have logged in between called to the server, 
and it does this by storing the password information in cvspass. This 
file needs to be located for each CVS call after use have issued cvs 
login.

Brett/Jason it might be worthwhile putting this little gem of

hits each day, and it might save a little frustration......
