You have a syntax error in the CVSROOT. For proxy= and proxyport= they
the optiosn included in the ':method;option=arg;option=arg:' of the
first -d:method;option=arg;option=arg:host.domain/path/name and are
separated by ';' characters from the 'pserver'

-d':pserver;proxy=mycompany.com;proxyport=8080:address@hidden/directory/root-for-cvs'
