Notice the difference! There should NOT be a user at host, it should be
simply host

In WinCvs preferences you should set the data as follows:
Authentication = sspi
Path = /TEST
Host address = name of cvs server
User name = BLANK!!!! <== Don't enter anything in this box!

Then it will work like the command liune did.

If you cannot do a checkout or an ls then you also cannot import.
First fix the connection so you have access...
