Those described here:

http://www.netbsd.org/Documentation/current/#using-anoncvs

But for instance:

1) cd $where_do_you_want_to_have_the_source
2) setenv CVSROOT :pserver:anoncvs.netbsd.org:/cvsroot
3) cvs login (if you never used cvs, do before that a ``touch ~/.cvspass'')
4) Password: anoncvs
5) cvs co src
6) eventually symlink your source tree to /usr/src # for compabibility

If it is slow, please use one of the mirrors near you (eg: jp/kr):
