[smc] Except the first place CVS looks when checking
the password is _in_ the repository, (see check_password()
in server.c) so if CVSROOT is bad, you can't check the
password quite properly. Perhaps you can in the event
your server is configured to use the native OS user account
passwords, (e.g. those in /etc/shadow).
