sserver isn't a command...

Try cvs info, which lists the installed protocols.  It sounds like you
have it though.

You should have a certificate file and a key file.  The certificate
file starts ---BEGIN CERTIFICATE--- and ends with --END CERTIFICATE--
and the key file starts with ---BEGIN RSA PRIVATE KEY--- and ends with
---END RSA PRIVATE KEY---.  These need to be pointed to with the
CertificateFile and PrivateKeyFile directives (as mentioned in the
wiki article).

Then you just login just like pserver, but use sserver instead.

cvs -d :sserver:me at mymachine:/usr/local/cvs login
