Manually killing a server process will cause a "connection reset" error
at the client.  If you don't kill the server process, do you still get
the client error and, if so, is the server process still running
afterwards or has it died?

The only timeout in CVS is that the server uses TCP/IP Keep-Alive to
detect clients that disappear without properly closing their
connections, but that usually takes hours to kick in.
