I was just about to post a message asking why -x does not work with 
:sspi: against a Linux CVSNT server.

Tony, if there's a good reason for this, I'd like to change TortoiseCVS 
to not use -x in this case. However, this leads to another question: How 
can I determine on which platform the server runs? "cvs version" 
unfortunately does not include a platform identifier.
