title: CVS login issues - through ant
body: <p>I am trying to do a cvs login through ant using the below target. This is working perfectly under windows, but when I run this on my ubuntu box, I keep getting the authorization_failed error.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;target name="cvs_login" unless="cvspass_exists"&gt;
     &lt;cvspass cvsroot="${env.CVSROOT}" password="" passfile=".cvspass" /&gt;
  &lt;/target&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I have the $CVSROOT variable set in /etc/profile.</p>
  
  <pre><code>:pserver:&lt;uname&gt;:&lt;pwd&gt;@&lt;server&gt;:/ABC
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Am I missing something?</p>
  
  <p>I keep getting this error.</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>cvs export: authorization failed: server  rejected access to /ABC for user </p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Any help would be appreciated.</p>
