We also have this issue not only in Continuum, but in command+line Maven too.
We execute maven-scm-plugin during the build to download common resources
from CVS. When user changes CVS password, cvs provider cannot login to cvs.
After debugging the source code, I found that CVS provider stores password
in file ~/.cvspasswd, and doesn't refresh it.
> Continuum ignores a new given password for a cvs account until the cvsroot is
> also changed

> Project: Maven SCM (Moved to GitHub Issues)
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: maven-scm-provider-cvs
> Affects Versions: 1.0
> Reporter: Peter Kehren
> Priority: Major
>
> 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.
