Sorry, but there's no way that you're telnetting to the port and seeing a
password prompt. If all is well then if you typed some text you would
normally see something along the lines of :
cvs [pserver aborted]: bad auth protocoal start: <whateverYouTyped>
Also, in your earlier post you said:

You're never going to see anything, astericks or otherwise, echoed back. Are you
sure you're entering the password and hitting a carriage return at the end? (Yes,
this is a dumb question, but this sure sounds like the fix is going to be a DOH!)
