Try instead :sspi:myserver:/cvs/cvsrepo and don't log in.  Replace
'myserver' with the name of your server.  If all your clients are
Windows boxes, SSPI is by far the simplest protocol.

Also, you may wish to use the CVSNT control panel applet to set up a
repository prefix rather than using /cvs/cvsroot.  This will make your
life *much* easier when you need to move the repository around on the
disk.
