Not really. Just haven't done so yet. Except that there will be cvs
clients will be Win and/or Mac machines, to a Linux CVS box. But I
presume (hopefully) there's some way to make WinCVS (for example) do
it's stuff over SSH to a Linux CVS server.

It asks me for my password (I took Gabe's advice, and made it use
SSH, at least on the CVS server itself). Then it left me in a file
with these contents
CVS: ----------------------------------------------------------------
CVS: Enter Log. Lines beginning with `CVS:' are removed
automatically
CVS:
CVS: ----------------------------------------------------------------
Not knowing WHAT the hell this meant, I merely wrote out the file.
:-) (I'm just helping set this up; I don't use CVS, myself)
cvs [import aborted]: reading syslog: Permission denied
mjl@slimtop:/var/log$
I'm guessing that SOME part of CVS is working?

I did; here it is again
mjl@slimtop:/var/log$ ls -la /usr/local/cvs
total 12
