There are several ways to do: pserver, ext, kserver, gserver. See, e.g. Chapter 2 of [http://cvsbook.red-bean.com/cvsbook.html Open Source Development with CVS] by K. Fogel and M. Bar (2nd Edition, Coriolis Group, 2001).

'''pserver'''

`cvs -d :pserver:tosa@cvs.foobar.com:/space/repo/1/dev login`

where username is "`tosa`" on the server "`cvs.foobar.com`". The cvs depository is `/space/repo/1/dev`. You get asked about the password. Once you stored your authentication in `.cvspass` file, you can run other CVS commands using a similar way.

`cvs -d :pserver:tosa@cvs.foobar.com:/space/repo/1/dev co dev`

which checkout the entire directory `dev` into the current directory.

'''ext'''

`export CVS_RSH=ssh` [[BR]]
`cvs -d :ext:tosa@cvs.foobar.com:/space/repo/1/dev co dev`

Note that even though CVS_RSH, we use `ssh`, which is a secure shell
