It depends on the ALICE_CFG_URL  cvs://<user>@ip

The cvs-authentication is done the following way:
the Client sends username and scrabled password from the .cvspass which match 
the corrosponding CVSROOT . The server descrables the password and check's if 
it matches with the password stored in CVSROOT/passwd for that user.

to make it work do the following:
login to your CVS-server as anoncvs@ip:/path
when this succeeded copy everthing(including the A) beginning with the A as 
password for the cvs-server to the ALICE_CFG_URL

if the password for anonymous access is <ENTER> leave the parameter for the 
password away, ALICE uses that as default password.
