You can't, from this server. Someone outside the United States will have
to set up an anoncvs server mirroring the cvs.fi.netbsd.org CVS root.

Were one in the United States or Canada, and had one no intent to export that
tree, nor to provide it to a foreign national -- so that it would be legal
to check the tree out -- one would simply check out the 'src-crypto-us'
module, which fetches 'src' plus 'crypto-us' into a directory called 'src'
in the current directory.

No.
Oh -- and one thing I neglected to mention: CVS in 'pserver' mode will
require you to enter a password. It's "anoncvs".
