Last time I had that problem, the user was using wincvs and

I actually went to the effort of creating a hook to "strace"
cvs when in pserver mode from the inetd file. I think I still

It seems this depends more on your shell than it does cvs.
Using tcsh you need to do so:

tcsh requires an escape ('\') for each newline
withing a quote.
On bash you do:
