Oops I probably should have mentioned:
the file c:\pserver\cvsroot\config contains:
SystemAuth=yes
There is not passwd file or other config information.
CVSROOT environment variable on the nt server is set to:
CVSROOT=:ntserver:ntsrvr01:c:\pserver\cvsroot history
(not that I think it makes a difference...)
