Can't subscribe or get CVS

I just tried to get PostgreSQL from CVS , but it rejected the password
'postgresql' for user 'anoncvs':
   $ export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@postgresql.org:/home/projects/pgsql/cvsroot   $ cvs login   (Logging in to
anoncvs@postgresql.org)  CVS password:   cvs login: authorization failed: server postgresql.org rejected access to
/home/projects/pgsql/cvsrootfor user anoncvs
 


Then, I tried to post this to pgsql-hackers, but my scubscrption
failed, too!

Is majordomo and CVS broken, or do I need different instructions?

Hi noel,

The correct CVSROOT is now:

export CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.postgresql.org:/projects/cvsroot

And the password is blank or 'postgresql'
