You can use rsh or ssh to access a remote repository as well.
Set your $CVSROOT = :ext:user@machine:/path/to/repository.
By default cvs uses rsh. Set $CVS_RSH = ssh if you want to
use ssh. You can also tell cvs to use a different port
if you insist on using pserver mode via the $CVS_CLIENT_PORT = <something>
environment variable. Although on this one you have to figure
out how to connect cvs to the incoming port on that machine( which
is why it's done through inetd.conf ).
