It still is :pserver: access, but you need to tunnel port 2401
via SSH

  ssh -L24010:localhost:2401 [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Of course, your cvshome.org password won't work for the userid tunnel.
The password to use is 'tunnel' or you may download the private key to
use via the URL: https://ccvs.cvshome.org/id_cvshome.key and then
configure your ssh (OpenSSH users use $HOME/.ssh/config) to use this key
with something like:

Host cvshome.org
    ForwardX11 no
    ForwardAgent no
    LocalForward 24010 localhost:2401
    User tunnel
    IdentityFile /path/to/the/file/id_cvshome.key

and using the downloaded private key id_cvshome.key filename.

In one window use:
  ssh cvshome.org

and in another use:
  export CVSROOT=:pserver:[EMAIL PROTECTED]:24010/cvs
  cvs checkout ccvs

where $USER is the userid you registered with cvshome.org

        Enjoy!
