Indeed.  My fault.  I committed to do this then got jumped on at work.
It is in progress, it's just slow.  I'll try and find time this
evening or tomorrow to finish things.

Once it's up, people who want to use it will need to send a preferred
username and crypted password.  This should probably _not_ be a
password that you use for anything else, because CVS pserver sends it
across the net in (trivially mangled) plaintext

The simplest way to encrypt your password in the preferred manner is
probably to use perl - you have it installed somewhere, right?

$ perl -de 1

Loading DB routines from perl5db.pl version 1.01
Emacs support available.

Enter h or `h h' for help.

main::(-e:1):   1
  DB<1> print crypt("my password","WZ")
WZEF2LSJnm9Gs

Substitue your password (in quotes) for "my password" and any
two-character string for WZ.  Then send me the output that
it prints.
