passwd should not be handled manually at all, use the cvs passwd
command to manage the user logins instead.
If you want to work on the passwd file manually you can do so, just
edit it in place in /CVSROOT. Note that this file should never be
added to the checkoutlist file so it becomes part of the CVSROOT
module. That would be a big security hole opening up.
