We're having the same issue, also in Continuum.
We're using cvs native provider. When we start a release:prepare from
continuum, we always pass in a CVS user name and passwd. But when that passwd
is changed, and we pass the new passwd, CVS rejects the login.
We fixed it by removing the cvs user login from .cvspasswd in continuum's
home dir.
Changing DNS name by IP number had also the same effect, since this will
also result in ignoring the .cvspasswd entry.
I think that CVS will ask for a user login if it's not in .cvspasswd, or the
one in .cvspasswd is incorrect. Apparently the native cvs provider only handles
the first case.
Greets, Geert.

> I changed (only!) the password of a cvs account and set this new password in
> a project definition in continuum by the web interface. The next build of the
> project did not work, because of a wrong password (no access to cvs was
> reported). It seems, that continuum uses the old password although a new
> password was set. After changing the cvsroot (replaced ip number by dns
> entry; 100% NOT the reason for this error) the cvs system could be accessed;
> the new password was used.
