I don't know what you think you're doing, but that is not correct
syntax.  You should have the CVS user name, a colon, then that user's
encrypted password, with no extra spaces.  You can follow that with
another colon and a system user to run as; if that's omitted, the CVS
user must also be a system user and CVS will run as that user.
