Can you connect with these commands successfully?
  cvs -d :pserver:gnus@cvs.gnus.org:/usr/local/cvsroot login
  gnus <RET>
  cvs -d :pserver:gnus@cvs.gnus.org:/usr/local/cvsroot checkout gnus

I renamed ~/.cvspass
ls ~/.cvspass
ls: /home/reader/.cvspass: No such file or directory

Then:
 $ cvs -d :pserver:gnus@cvs.gnus.org:/usr/local/cvsroot login
(Logging in to gnus@cvs.gnus.org)
CVS password: 
cvs [login aborted]: recv() from server cvs.gnus.org: Connection reset by peer

It fails here.

As mentioned in a previous post I can connect to several other 
cvs :pservers, so apparantly not a local network config problem

Do you think it could be something like cat /etc/hosts.deny
MY.ISP.COM
on the cvs server config?

Who should I contact for that kind of info?

I have CVS_RSH=/usr/bin/ssh set (for local use), but that never
mattered before. 

I did try `unset CVS_RSH' and then the above commands.  Still fails.
I didn't see a way to force cvs to be more verbose about what is
happening either

man cvs 
/debug  - Pattern not found
/[Dd][Ee][Bb][Uu] - Pattern not found
/verbose - Pattern not found
/\-[vV]  - Shows hits about version.

`info cvs' not much better on the above strings.
