I can do this in theory, but this is what happens in practice:

cvs login: cannot open /Users/darcusb/.cvspass: Permission denied
cvs [login aborted]: could not open /Users/darcusb/.cvspass: Permission 
denied

I don't understand the intricacies of CVS, though this machine is setup 
with a repository so that I can sync work on my laptop with it.  Maybe 
that causes the problem?
