Connection refused to CVS repository (and ACLs).

Hi,
I have set up a locally mounted CVS repository, to share sources between 2
of us on a same project.
I can checkout files without any problem, but the other user can't and gets
a
"cvs [checkout aborted]: connect to machine:2401 failed: Connection refused"

What is most surprising is that the user does have access to the repository
directory he wants to checkout. He can 'cd' to it without any problem, and
even read a document. (I have set the corresponding ACLs for him).
Why can't he checkout ?

(I'm using a locally mounted repository. Not a pserver or another kind of
remote CVS server).
The user is specified in a 'writers' file in $CVSROOT/CVSROOT


bash-2.03$ cvs checkout docs/internal/papers/toto/toto.txt
cvs [checkout aborted]: connect to machine:2401 failed: Connection refused

PS. Is it a problem to use ACLs with CVS ?
