pserver login problem to Linux from Win2k

Subject: pserver login problem to Linux from Win2k

I have a CVS repository on our Linux development server that I need to
access from my Win2k box.  I can access that repository logged in locally on
the sever via telnet, and I can also access it via WinCVS, but I need to be
able to access it from the command line (trying psever).  CVS from the
command line is complaining about my CVSROOT variable.  It's probably just a
simple Win vs Unix syntax issue, but I need help.

Version on the sever is CVS 1.11.1p1 and I just downloaded the binary for
Win which is v1.11.2

Sample of my session via a DOS window (CVSROOT is set as an environment
variable to be ':pserver:address@hidden:/swdev/cvsroot'):

-------
J:\projects\ORHwBringUp>cvs ci -m "cmdline test" Makefile
cvs commit: in directory .:
cvs commit: ignoring CVS/Root because it specifies a non-existent repository
/swdev/cvsroot
cvs commit: in directory .:
cvs commit: ignoring CVS/Root because it specifies a non-existent repository
/swdev/cvsroot
cvs commit: warning: failed to open C:\/.cvspass for reading: No such file
or directory
cvs commit: authorization failed: server engswdev rejected access to
/swdev/cvsroot for user derosier
cvs commit: used empty password; try "cvs login" with a real password

J:\projects\ORHwBringUp>set
CVSROOT=:pserver:address@hidden:/swdev/cvsroot

J:\projects\ORHwBringUp>echo %CVSROOT%
:pserver:address@hidden:/swdev/cvsroot

J:\projects\ORHwBringUp>cvs login
cvs login: in directory .:
cvs login: ignoring CVS/Root because it specifies a non-existent repository
/swdev/cvsroot
Logging in to :pserver:address@hidden:2401/swdev/cvsroot
CVS password:
cvs login: warning: failed to open C:\/.cvspass for reading: No such file or
directory

----

BTW--engswdev properly resolves to the IP of the server as it is set in my
hosts file.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks,
- Steve
