I meant for the client -- it should start with :pserver:.

$HOME shouldn't be set at all! CVS is perfectly capable of figuring out
where the user's home directory is, but if $HOME is set, it will just
use it instead. (That's intended to let the user override the default,
which makes sense for stand-alone or client CVS, but not really for
server CVS. Since the same code is used for all three modes, however,
it isn't really practical to make it work differently for the server.)
The simplest thing to do is to use env to clear out the environment
completely. You can probably use it to run either tcpserver or cvs.
