Do you change user for CVS access?

I just ran an update (actually it's still running), and anonymous worked fine.

My .cvspass line is
/1 :pserver:[email protected]:2401/home/ps2cvs Ay=0=a%0bZ

Called from ps2devupdate.sh as

## CVS configuration.
if [ -z "`cat ~/.cvspass | grep $CVSROOT`" ]; then
echo "THE SECRET PASSWORD IS: anonymous"
cvs -d $CVSROOT login
fi

And my CVSROOT is

export CVSROOT=":pserver:[email protected]:2401/home/ps2cvs"

You have pserver in there twice, take one out.
