 I tried it again a few hours later, and it worked.  I'm not sure why it
failed twice earlier in the day.

environment variables:

CVSROOT=:pserver:anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot
CVS_RSH=ssh

 The original sources were tar.gz files, ftp'd from ftp.netbsd.org.

sarasvati:/usr/src $ cat /usr/src/CVS/Root 
anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot

sarasvati:/usr/src/distrib/hp300 $ cat CVS/Root 
anoncvs@anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot

Thanks for your help!
