pserver problem

[James P. Schmidt]

I'm getting the following response when trying to log into my newly
created cvs server via pserver:

> cvs -d :pserver:(address@hidden):/usr/local/cvsrepos login
(Logging in to (address@hidden))
CVS password: <correct password>
cvs [login aborted]: unrecognized auth response from (host): Unknown
command: `pserver'

/etc/inetd.conf is configured exactly as it's described in Karl Fogel's
CVS book:

...
cvspserver      stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/um/bin/cvs cvs
--allow-root=/usr/local/cvsrepos pserver

...

Hmm, I just noticed that tcpwrappers appear to be in use on this machine.
Changing /etc/inetd.conf to

cvspserver      stream  tcp     nowait  root    /usr/sbin/tcpd
/usr/um/bin/cvs cvs --allow-root=/usr/local/cvsrepos pserver

and... I get a different error:

cvs [login aborted]: recv() from server (host): EOF


This is running on Solaris 8.  Any clues as to why this isn't working, or
what I might still have misconfigured?
